Hello,
Has anyone tried to connect on a laptop one triple head+one dual head, meaning 5 outputs?
I know it works 2xtriple head.
Thanks

It should work, since you have the proper video outputs available.

you need the digital edition than it should work, the analog vga version is not multi-device-able!

I've used both DualHead2Go and TrippleHead2Go Analog AND Digital edition in dual setups (Two of each per machine) on desktops. Analog version most certainly IS multi-deviceable.
I have noticed however, that the old Matrox driver package works way better for the analog version than the new software suite.
With the old software suite the analog devices don't need to be USB connected to your machine, using USB power adapters it's possible to have the Dual/TrippleHeads at a long distance and breakout to 2-3/4-6 outputs where your screens/projectors are located. Even some VGA-Cat5 extenders will work in combination with EDID reminders.
I've never used combinations of Dual WITH Trippleheads..
Since you mention using a laptop you probably mean running over thunderbolt?

Hello
Thanks, I'm running on windows 8, Asus g74 sx.
I know you can go with 2xtriple or 2x dual head.
But I needed to know if you can run 1x triple+1xdual head on the same output.
Please let me know if you have tried this combination.
Thx

no way....
only thing i can imagine is to use a video scaler to split 1 output on 2 screens
