Hi,
I bought a Mad Dog FX5200 PCI Video card while ago, I installed it to my Dell recently, it works fine on Dell CRT moniter(I don't play game at all with this computer), but when I conneted to stander TV, I get on the TV is the Windows Desktop background screen. I cannot view the DVD being played, I can view the application, like the DVD player's frame, but the movie being played inside the frame is black. I play around with the setting it works(not sure what setting I did), but after Computer reboot it back to the same problem. I am searching the MD Website, but I could not find anything about how to do the Setting. If anyone (used or using the same card) can help me with issue. Thank you in advance.
Kent

Some programs, such as DVD players and some video playback, only display on the primary monitor or display. Sometimes you can CLONE the displays or make them the same otherwise in your Display - Settings - Advanced - ....? settings, or in a settings program for your video drivers, and get a display on both, but often there's nothing you can do about it.
