    Resolved [RESOLVED] Setup TV as second montior?

    Ok so I had an ATI card and this setup was working fine.

    I got a new computer got an 8800GT and now when I try to expand my desktop to the TV, the tv flickers showing the desktop but when it's done the TV goes black again.

    I'm using an svideo to RCA adapter. Was working fine with the ATI card.

    I figure I must be doing something semi right seeing as when I enable it to extend my desktop it does flicker with the TV image but is there some more advanced setting I need to set to actually get it to work?

    Ok found out some more info, it appears since I'm not really using an s video cable directly to my TV Nvidia thinks it's smart to not let their users force video out, instead it seems you MUST have the card detect the TV or they won't let you force S video out.

    Well I found a link that explains how you MIGHT be able to do it,

    Ok did what he said, I just had to restart my computer and it worked, TV out is now working.
