Be careful when updating driver, I have a nvidia GForce 8600 GT and after updating driver it would only allow me to use HD TV's. I had to roll back driver as all places I do shows don't have HD TV's.

Beavis I have updated both ways, Windows and NVidia. Same results.

OK guys I got a Gforce8400 video card. I changed the settings to "extend the desktop onto this monitor", clicked apply and ok. I restart the computer. The display starts on the TV, not my main monitor, then when it gets to login & password it reverts back to the main monitor. I open Hoster and the second display is still on the main. I cannot get it on to the TV. I go back to display settings and the #2 monitor says "inactive. I'm lost. What do need to do now?

the second needs to be set to active.

How do I set it to active. I have left clicked on it, double left clicked on it and right clicked on it and find nothing to activated it. I went to the Nvida control panel where you can set dual displays. When it is on single display my monitor and TV show up but when I change it to clone the TV does not show. I forced it and restarted but still the same. Any suggestions?

right mouse click on your desktop and select properties, make sure you do not have the mouse on an icon. on the tab that says settings click it. it should be right there Extend your desktop.
