Question laptop won't dual display

I have been trying to get my laptop to work for my shows but, I can't get it to show dual. It has a s video out and I can get it to show on either the laptop or the tv but not both. The button to extend my desktop does not allow me to check it. I've tried a new driver still no luck. Can someone help? The video card is S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR.

I have a Dell laptop with s3 graphics and it won't work either. You can not extend your desktop. It will only be in the clone mode. There is now way to make it work with s3 graphics.

Same Problem

Since installing 3.010 I haven't been able to make dual display work on my sony Vaio either. I've been running hoster on this laptop for two years now, but now It won't work. the way I've been making it work for shows is to make the laptop lyrics screen float, resizing it and dragging it to the tv screen. But in the normal conventional sense of how the program used to work, I can not make it work. I hadn't posted anything about this previously, because I have been very busy and not able toresearch the problem much, but for two weeks now, that is what I've had to do to make my show work.
