Multi-monitor display problems
I am having problems configuring my AIW 9000 to display two monitors. I
have a 19" Viewsonic LCD (running 1280x1024) which I would like to be the primary and I would like to use a KDS LCD (max 1024x780). The main purpose is to put the TV window on the secondary monitor. I am running XP (SP1) and today I D/L'ed/installed the newest Catalyst/media center/hydravison/DAO / MDAC software. I went into the display and clicked on 2. (Default Monitor) on ALL-IN-WONDER 9000 - Secondary. Set my resolution to 800x600. Color to 32-bit. I clicked the "extend my windows desktop onto this monitor" and clicked apply (Screen flickered a bit). My secondary monitor displays a Out of range message because it still thinks that it is the primary running at the high res. I went back into the display dialog and the settings all were saved except the "extend my windows desktop onto this monitor" I put the resolution down to 1024x780 on both displays and the secondary monitor works fine except I can not drag the TV window on to it. Still behaving as the primary. I know this is a long post, but wanted all the information that I can think of available. What am I missing? TIA for any help with this problem. Mark |
