I have a question. I have a HTPC that is hooked up via the component dongle to my HDTV. I want to connect a 17" LCD via VGA to the video card as well.

How do I switch between these 2 displays? Will I have to disconnect the HDTV to do this? I've never done this so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Go to display settings and setup dual displays.
I know if you have an ATI card you can setup profiles and then create desktop shortcuts to switch between profiles for different monitors.
