View Full Version : Trying to set up a Powerpoint computer with dual display.
The dual display being a PCI card going to a monitor, and an AGP card with TV out going to a TV for displaying the songs at church. How do I set thig up? So far I cannot get anything to display onto the TV from the video card. I am using two S3 Savage IX 8mb video cards, one being a PCI card and the other being an AGP card with TV out. I have been battling this for weeks now and so far I cannot get anything to display on the TV, and when I have it flickers really bad, like screen roll. Help me please, I am pulling my hair out here and I really dont have much left to pull out as it is lol. :D
C'mon. Somebody please go over what I am supposed to do to set up dual display............ Any tips will help me with this.

Hmm
I am on a single card, but lets see I go to settings advanced, and then to the dispaly tab. I would think that if you unclicked the set as two different monitors tab, it would work.

he's right, but once you are in the advanced screen, click on the S3DuoVue tab then you'll see a CRT monitor and an lcd monitor and a tv and you'll also see a white box above each icon, well click on the white boxes , then click on apply and that should be it

Well I have tried that more than once, but it seems to not want to work. Going through all of this again.
I cannot find that duoview program and I also cannot get the TV out side to show on the tv at all. Using an RF modulator and the tv out cable to it and still nothing. I am stumped.

Well I have the same agp card on my moms pc and thats how i got it to work on her tv
I am going to try this in a diff. mobo that I just picked up. I am thinking that maybe the onboard video is causing some of the problems here. Even with it disabled I suppose that it could be causing some probs. I have ran tv out before with a diff. computer with no problems, that is why I am so stumped with this setup :( .
I got it....... I freaking got it!!! I now have TV out working with that cheap azz card and it seems to be working ok. Thanks to all of you who chimed in to try and help me. The S3 seems to be working as advertised. :D
