Did anyone else have trouble with fences when they loaded this update? It stopped working for me altogether.

Debug new Dream notes: Watercolor and Water Dream doesn't work on any of three monitors, as mentioned above. Copper Pool, Winter Snow, Desktop Earth, Desktop Slideshow seem to work but there if you try too many combinations under multiGPU you can cause the second and third monitors to start flashing. 8) Logging off then on again to reset things seems to do the trick in fixing such confusion. PhotoDream works fabulously, even keeping separate settings for each instance copied into the dreams directory. So you can have different photo directories, backgrounds, etc. on each monitor. DesktopCollage works but even separate running instances share one settings file between them, so you can't have one collage of landscapes on one monitor, another of celebrities on another, for example. Video dreams work flawlessly for me, mixing and matching with full acceleration. Again, if you want the same video dream playing on all monitors, it's best to create duplicate instances of it in your dreams directory. The act of "cloning" any dream from one GPU to another GPU can cause the 100% explorer.exe behavior. I hope these notes help! This is the best thing to happen to Deskscapes ever, IMHO.

 I rebooted and now fences is working along with the new Deskscapes beta.  Maybe if you hold hour mouth just so and concentrate hard, all these toys will play together nicely.  I like the new effects

The Watercolor Dream is not working at all. The same behavior happened with previous betas if one tries to turn on an effect with any dream other than a video dream. They all choke the same way...re: black screen on monitor, still on preview. But in this case, the preview works for Watercolor Dream, but it doesn't work on any monitor or combination thereof. 8(

I have three monitors, 2 GPUs (1 is built in / ATI surround view). Monitors 1 + 2 are on PCI-E card, 3 is built in.

If I try to make 3 different than 1 + 2 I get an Unable to play dream error: Unable to start DirectX on your machine. Please try rebooting and if this continues try updating your video drivers. After the error 1 + 2 show but 3 doesn't.

If I change monitor 2 leaving 1 + 3 the same It applies but monitor 2 flickers between both DeskScapes. And after I am have problems changing them all back. Selecting all monitors does not change monitor 2 and when I do change it and apply it is still flickering to the old DeskScapes. Disabling DeskScapes and changing all again seems to fix it. During the above I also ran into problems with config stop responding.

Edit:  I should add if I leave all 3 monitors the same it works like expected on all 3.  Also, I still have problems making the 3RD monitor different if I am using all static jpeg wallpapers not just DeskScapes.

Edit: Can anybody explain why my line returns where in this post (I had to re-insert them)?

It sounds like your HD 3200 isn't up to running the dreams when in surround view mode.

Thank you for the update Neil.
