    I'm trying to hook my tv up to my PC so I can use both the monitor and TV at the same time.

    I'm using a composite connection, and so far it only works with one or the other, and not both at the same time... anyone know what settings I have to change to use both at once? I got it working before, but cant remember how.

    Also, when I do use the TV, the picture is pretty bad, i cant even read the text on it... is it to do with my connection, the settings on my PC, or my TV (its only a 14")??

    Thanks,

    Flogen

    only new graphics cards are capable of displaying seperate images on the TV and the computer monitor at the same time. I know my Geforce3 can't, but my ATi 9600 can.

    Im using a geforce 4, and from what I know about it, you can run on 2 screens at once (as I said I've done it before, just can't do it now for some reason).

    As for the quality, its not a huge deal, I'll mainly be using it to watch videos etc... was just wondering if there was a way to improve the quality anyway.
