Hi guys,

I have a GF3-TI200/Samsung 955DF as my primary and a RivaTNT/Philips 109S as my secondary display under Win2k Pro (both are 19" monitors). I just recently decided to install the Riva and give this multi-monitor thing a try, and its been great so far.

But then today I decided to try watching a DVD on my secondary and its not working. It will ONLY work on my primary display. I am using PowerDVD XP (version 4) for decoding. I have spoken with 2 friends who have similar setups and they are in the same boat. One of them also says that MPEG2 movies will only display on his primary but I have not tested that in my setup.

I will happily acquire WinDVD or even a Hollywood Plus DVD card if it will help me achieve this. Can anyone help??

Thanks! Wayne
