I got an AGP ATI Radeon 9200. I got my television connected my ATI and I could watch my movies perfectly on it. The problem is that I can't find the option where it turns into dual screen. Where I can drag programs on to my television display and work on my monitor. I used it for editing when I had an old Geforce. This is what it looks like:

If click on the circle for the tv that means I'll be watching VIDEOS on my television and the mediaplayer on my monitor will have no video, so there's no way to watch videos on both displays at the same time. Can somebody tell me how to get dual display here. Also is there any way you can play videos fullscreen on my secondary and keep on working on my monitor....I used to do it with my old geforce. Hope I didn't sound to confusing.

Go to ati.com and download the Catalyst Control Center, version 5.10 is the latest. Download the file that is 33.8 MB. I have this version running and you have way more options than the shipping software. With this software you can do as mentioned above.
