With older drivers ahile ago i had it working once between two monitors. Now skip to the future, I have ditched one of the monitors for a tv and the newest drivers. I am running w2k btw. No I am using the dongle to connect the db15 to compostie cable which runs to the back of the tv.

I enable and do everything I think I am supposed to do. But I can never get anything on it.
All I want is to be able to put my dvds on the tv. Thier is a Hollywood macgi between the tv and the second vid port for video.

Thanks

You need to reinstall the drivers and specify that you want to use the dual head feature during the install process. By default, the dual head feature is switched off for the Win2K drivers.

I did and it did install the extra dual head features during the installation process.

Now when I go to advanced and then go to dual head under preferences.. I can turn it on and it makes my res 3200x1200x32x60hz. However the portion that schould be on the tv is not there. And I assigned ctrl+P as the shortcut for desktop clone and when I press it, all it does is make my monitor blink for a sec.

Still nothign on the tv.
