Expert: Chris Morrison Date: 3/15/2008 Subject: TV display problem on display card
Question Recently I installed a AGP 250M display card on my computer with TV out. (yellow RCA plug for TV out). When I boot up my computer there is display on my LCD and TV screen. But there is no display later when it comes to desktop icon not showing on the TV screen but the LCD is showing the desktop icons. What causes the display not showing the desktop icons on the TV screen after the booting while the LCD is okay.
Is there any setting to be corrected.
Thanks,
alvin
Answer It is showing the TV as an extension of your monitor. To make a clone of your monitor go to the control panel and look for the applet for your video card. Double click the icon. In the setting there should be multiple display settings. You'll just need to set these settings to clone. All video card software is different so I can't tell you the exact placement of the settings.
