Total beginner can't get based first base

[dkp]

Ok sorry to be a total pain I am trying to be able to see my PC on the TV so I can watch movies.

I have plugged in my cable from the graphics card (ASUS ti4600) to TV. What should I do next?

I seem to remember using a projector with my laptop and all i had to do was hit something like alt and f5/f6.

please would someone come and help...and give me some nice basic instructions.

Yours gratefully

You need to put the TV-out on your graphics card in clone mode.

This is usually done in 'Control panel'->settings->advanced.

I'am not exactly sure how it works on the Gforce4. On my Gforce2 I go to the Gforce2 tab, select Nview and check clone mode.

You might also want to checkout TVTool which may dramatically improve video playback for you.

For some reason when i go to NView all the boxes are greyed out and i cant select the clone view

Ok I got it sorted now, next problem when i play a movie i can see it on the monitor but not on the TV it is just black. I would prefer to resolve this without installing any other programs if possible.

Thanks in advance

p.s Thanks very much KHP
