i can hook up my tv to my computer no problem if i want to use it as one big screen that stretches across from the computer monitor to the tv. what i really want to do is to have the main display on both the tv and monitor. anyone know what settings to change to do this

You have to change the "Multimonitor Display" settings ... course that prolly doesnt help you much unless you have the drivers for the crad (as oppposed to the windows drivers)....
