okay i have a couple of ?'s i hooked a S-video cable from my video card (Geforce 6800) to my tv i figured out how to get the picture up by setting the nvidia display on clone but when i try to watch movies in windows media or any other format it shows up black on my tv, but the picture does come on the monitor how can i get the picture on the tv? and does it put a load on the video card running a monitor and the s video out?

Read your cards documentation.

Im sure you running XP and XP is a Biatch when it comes to running dual monitors or sending video to tv's anyone with XP running dual monitors will tell you that if you drag media player to the right screen (The extra one) you will not see the movie but on the left screen (regular screen) it will play.

It a feature not a bug :) or so microsoft says LOL. :rolleyes:
