The only times that I have seen this happen, it has been a bad cable. Try replacing your Cable and see what happens. The cable going to the TV.

The cable is brand new . The tele is on av setting ,is this correct? Oh and i use my laptop for shows but it only has a s3g prosavage ddr card in it and i cannot find extended desktop on it. Does this card have extended desktop?

Are you jumping from desktop to laptop? Let's get the one with the Radeon card working first, and not confuse the issue any more than it is.

From what you've described, it's more than not having extended desktop configured properly, but you'll need to do it eventually, so to set up extended desktop:

Have the tv and pc connected and the tv turned on. Reboot the pc.

1-Right click anywhere on a blank spot on your pc desktop.

2-Click PROPERTIES.

3-Click SETTINGS. There should be two monitors showing.

4-Click on monitor #2

5-Check box that says EXTEND MY WINDOWS DESKTOP TO THIS MONITOR.

6- Click OK.

You should see your desktop on the tv minus any shortcuts or toolbars.
