I got this new graphics card, radeon x1650 pro, (I want the 8800 gts but I need $300 for one and a new power supply) Now I use my tv as an extender for my monitor and I usually watch stuff on it wile im on the computer, and of course I want it in fullscreen, but everytime I click on my computer the screen goes back to normal Now, is there any way to control each monitor seperately so I can keep it in fullscreen?
The ATI software that installs with the drivers should let you control the different behaviors of the two monitors. It may be the application you are using to play the video as well.
In the ATI software you probably have the desktop cloned to the 2nd moniter. that is whatever you do on main desktop shows on 2nd screen. You need to extend your desktop to 2nd monitor. Then whatever app you are using to watch something ( I'm assuming a movie ) you can drag to the other screen leaving your 1st desktop ( I'm assuming your computer monitor ) free to work on - then whatever you click on does not affect the picture on 2nd moniter
Maybe I wasn't clear enough I know a lot more than you think about computers than the average Joe, I'm already extending the monitor rather than stretching it, and I'm speaking of videos on websites, such as youtube and veoh.
