The first thing I questioned after you first posted was whether you were 'locking " the singer's display. I hope after all the discussion on the subject we can assume you are properly "locking " the singer's display.

Something that has not been mentioned is whether you are in EXTENDED DESKTOP or CLONE mode. I've never tried using CLONE mode because the EXTENDED DESKTOP is the mode that must be used for the program to function properly. Therefor I don't know what would be the result using Clone mode.If you are seeing anything on the remote tv/monitor other than just the backgroung wallpaper when you first set up, it's in the wrong mode. You should not see any shortcuts, toolbars, etc.

Assuming the program is properly locked and you are in EXTENDED DESKTOP display mode, if it is the video card not installing properly, what error messages are you getting, if any, or what other programs are you having trouble with, if any?

The ATI Radeon 7500 was the recommended card used during the initial Beta testing of Hoster, and is a very reliable card IF IT WAS MADE BY ATI. Does the box yours came in say MADE BY ATI or POWERED BY ATI? Those POWERED BY ATI have been known upon occassion to be problematic. The difference is that ATI allows other manufacturers to purchase the rights to use some ATI patents in the manufacture of video cards and market them as POWERED BY ATI. They generally do not come up to the standards of those actually built by ATI, and are usually sold much cheaper that the ATI built product.

Just another couple of possibilities.
