Unable to use my old 20" CRT TV after uninstalling v9.7, rebooting,and installing v10.12 driver.
Hello.
I finally dumped my old ATI Catalyst v9.7 driver by uninstalling, rebooting, installing v10.12 (hdmiaudo.exe, xcode.exe, and ccc_ocl.exe) in my old, updated Windows XP Pro. SP3 machine. However, I knew this would happen with the upgrade. Hence, the long wait to upgrade. It seems like something broke? I cannot seem to use my 20" old CRT TV as my secondary display anymore for clone and full screen theater (watch videos fullscreen from my computer and still use my primary for whatever like surfing the web). I tried in both CCC's basic and advanced mode, but couldn't do it. See http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/7...ccc1210xpp.gif for a screen shot for basic mode. I can get my TV to be the primary/main screen, but I don't have my primary LCD monitor to use the PC. What's up? I think I will need to go back to v9.7 driver just to use this feature again! I wonder what was the last version that worked. Thank you in advance. -- "It is certain that there may be extraordinary mental activity with an extremely small absolute mass of nervous matter: thus the wonderfully diversified instincts, mental powers, and affections of ants are notorious, yet their cerebral ganglia are not so large as the quarter of a small pin's head.

Actually, I don't think the display info was blocked, because CCC showed it as a Syncmaster. You do have a Syncmaster, right? I just had a hunch that the newer driver was being a little too smart for it's own good, disabling something on the right, that wouldn't work with your current selection on the left. Is everything working now? |

Is everything working now? Um yes, but I still can't do both VGA and TV. I only can do DVI and TV. I want VGA and TV so I can use my KVM to go back and forth easily and quickly. If I use DVI, then I have to tell my monitor to switch to DVI after the KVM switch back to the machine with ATI Radeon 4870 video card.

Usually, KVMs are used to connect one display to more than one PC. |

The last detection problem I had involved laptop drivers. The only really odd problems with new drivers and my ATI cards involves switching from DVI to HDMI, audio, and display size not filling a LCD screen at native resolution. The cure was to use the reset function in CCC. |
