Hi George
I put together pretty much the same machine a few weeks ago. Havent had time to really move into it yet.
Have a question about your monitors set up. The machine Im still working with has dual 20 ViewSonics and Chief fills both completely when spanned across. A while back I changed one of the monitors to a 22 wide screen for a while. The physical height of the wide screen is ½ taller than the standard 20 monitor. When Chief spans that set up there is a ½ or so blank area at the bottom of the taller screen. I guess my question is,,, when you have Chief spanning those two monitors (30 & 21) (assuming you do fill both with chief) are you able to fill both screens top to bottom?
I hope this is not confusing,,, I would upload a picture but do not have that w screen and 20 set up at present.
TIA Ray C

Ray;
I'm not spanning the desktops, I have it set up for different backgrounds, and different resolutions for each display. I can move from one to the other. I run Chief on the 30", so at the same time can run other apps on the other monitor.George VanDusen, CPBD, CKD, CID

The videos we watch are not 100% gold, but if we find a gold nugget, the time spent viewing has a value.
We can please some of the people some of the time, but we can't please all the people all of the time..... but I will keep trying.
If you are interested in keeping abreast of any new videos, please subscribe to my channel at YOUTUBE...... channel is ds hall
