I am wondering why you had problems getting the 2nd screen on your existing laptop.
Did you have the second screen TV working OK with version 3.xxx.
Did the computer in question have dual graphics capability ?
If so which brand of graphics card was it using ?
What sort of connection did you have from the laptop to TV, VGA, HDMI, Svideo, etc?
Might be able to help if you state the computer model, Windows version, graphics card, amount of ram on board.
With the latest Windows 7 computers I should look for 4 GB ram, a second VGA out port as it seems some are HDMI only and at least 3 usb ports.
The faster the processor the better, problems do seem to occur more with the Nvidea graphics cards than the ATI. The hard drive size is not too much problem as most users keep their music files on an external usb drive.
