There is no option available to set the display to dual screen. (That I can find). I followed the directions to the best of my ability and that particular setting option is not mentioned.

I have been fighting this display problem for ..... Approaching 1 full year. I hardly think that I am "Acting so fast". Re-installing the operating system has cleared up numurous problems for me in the past. No guarentees but, nothing else has worked either.

I have not accused Hoster or MTU. (I still remain open minded about the card).

The HD was re-formatted and the operating system was installed from scratch just prior to installing Hoster for the first time. With the exception of a file transfer program, (WinMX), all other applocations on the computer are karaoke related but, only Hoster runs durring a show.

"Excess Memory"? I'll go out on a limb and presume that you are refering to Virtual Memory. Total Virtual Memory is 1,799,960 kb and the page file is 1,276,152 kb

A lot of questions, I know, but should be checked.

No.
No. Only 1 disk, 28 Gig of free space or, 40% free
No. Hoster is the only program I have that is designed to use multiple screens.
No. All were placed there by installation programs. (Operating system, Hoster install, etc..)

Check all of the above, I think any single one of them can cause what you experience.

I Appologize if some of my answers come off as Snide or "Skuck-up" but, having been a computer programmer for right at about 20 years now, my experiance tells me that it is highly unlikely that a near-full HD, (Which I don't have anyway), could be the cause of a failed Video card install. (I have learned to never say "Impossible", but..... Hmmmm)
