BMac Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 Right click on bg. Properties. Settings. Advanced. Twin View (or something to that effect). Then click in the drop down. I hope these instructions match for you as I have an NVidia card. Try that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMac Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 Yea but if you right click on the background a menu appears. Then the bottom option is properties. It's the same as going, Control Panel, Display though. Then follow my instructions from settings onward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayamaniac Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 what is a RCA RF Modulator with S-Video input? Is it an S-Video to RF converter? If so, then is your TV set really old that it doesn't have S-Video input? or even at least Composite (RCA) input? If it has RCA, there's a S-Video to RCA converter you can buy for a few bucks, check radioshack. and you will need to explain in detail of what you tried and what is not working.

Chode Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 To be honest, I think you would have done better to just get a graphics card that supports TV-out. My last two NVIDIA cards had it (GeForce 4 MX440, and my current GF4 Ti 4800) and I have to admit that NVIDIA's drivers make it extremely simple to do. Just a simple AV cable straight into the back of my TV (or VCR if I wanna do some recording ;) ) As for sound....well, the speakers that plug into my Subwoofer/Amp are AV cabled. All I do is run two AV cables from my Woofer/Amp into my TV/VCR. I use this tactic for recording what's on my screen onto a VHS cassette (very handy for 3D demo reels for my portfolios), and I also use it to play games which I am forced to play at uber-low resolution.

mayamaniac Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 I think the problem is that RF modulator, and unless someone own ones, they wouldn't know how to tell to set it up. like I said before, if your TV has RCA inputs, get a s-video to RCA converter, return the RF modulator. The other option is if you have a VCR with RCA input, then you can feed it thru the VCR first then to the TV with the coaxial cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
