When i then run hoster the only way it works with good graphics on both screens is by again Right click on the hoster icon and select "run with graphics processor" and then select the integrated graphics (default). This all seems a bit strange, if i don't select the default prior to running i get the grabled grahics again. I have made some screen shots if it is easier to understand, can they be posted here?
Thanks
Hi Marco, your description is very good, the option you describe right clicking on Hoster icon does not appear on my computer but then I'm running ATI graphics and don't have a choice of using intergrated. maybe bryant can try this as well.
I will drop a note into support to take a look at this particular thread as it seems it's something new with these new type graphic cards.

That seems to be similar to what I have had to do which is to completely disable the nVidea dedicated card and force all the programs run on the onboard video card, which is not recommended by most programs as satisfactory for video or karaoke use. Also, we spent the 300 dollars for the dedicated graphics card we can't use for what we were hoping for. As dedicated cards are recommended for Hoster too, but for the most part, the newer ones seem to work well, in fact, my really old ones work Okay.

I also cannot come out the hdmi port (which is the nvidea card), and have to come out that mini display adaptor that Dell now uses then to a vga cable into a vga adaptor, then another vga cable out to singers monitor and several composite wires to audience TV's. Spent a bit beforehand for 30 ft. lengths of Hdmi cable and an expensive hdmi amplified splitter, but as of yet can't use it, but am still trying every driver one at a time on the nvidia download page in hopes of getting this to work as it should.

Bryant, The weird thing is i am always using the HDMI port on my new laptop (e530) no matter which graphics i switch to. I have my original laptop (e520) which is also a lenovo and it works fine but it has the ati graphics but only 1gb of video memory. Ron hopefully support will have a suggestion.
