Matrox Graphics Inc. has released the Matrox PowerDesk 4.00 display driver for M-Series graphics cards operating under Microsoft Windows 7. The new driver features stretched desktop mode to span applications across all displays, while introducing desktop zoom to view a pre-selected region on a dedicated feature display. PowerDesk 4.00 also includes personalized divisions, a function under Desktop Divider that allows users to divide the desktop into smaller cells to create a customized and personalized desktop.

"PowerDesk 4.00's stretched desktop mode and Desktop Zoom are valuable multi-display enhancements, especially for professionals operating high-end applications on Windows 7 workstations," says Ron Berty business development manager, Matrox Graphics.

Matrox PowerDesk software provides multi-display controls to configure and manage program windows. This window management software offers utilities for management of message pop-ups and window positioning. PowerDesk 4.00 for M-Series cards also offers certification for Windows 7.
