Radeon 9200 128 MB...

Here's what i did:

First, i popped the ATI CD in, and installed the drivers from the CD... but they affected windows too much (crashing it, not letting DivX play, etc.) so i uninstalled it, and downloaded the latest from ATI's website... so DivX works again and everything, so i plug the TV into the TV-OUT on the video card (S-Video to RCA adaptor, and the RCA all the way through the house to the big screen TV, i had high expectations) and so everything works when i enable it in the "ATI CONTROL PANEL" and you can see everything, but whenever i try to play a movie, I JUST GET A BLACK SCREEN IN ITS PLACE!!!

i've tried DivX player and Windows Media Player... whether i'm watching a music video, a movie, or a movie trailer, it shows up as a purple screen on the TV.

WHAT DO I DO

Thanks

[color=66ff00]Yeah I had the same problem with my radeon 7000 and 9800 pro.

Thanks guys, I kept forgetting to do a search for a solution.

right click on the desktop, got to the video tab (furthest to the right) click on the monitor that is greyed out and select 'extend my desktop on to this monitor' or whatever it is. you have to explicitly tell it to activate the second monitor

yeah that's similar to how it is on the 9200 ATI control panel
