multiple monitors with Radeon 9200LE - please help
I just bought a Radeon 9200LE off ebay - unfortunately i didn't realize
at the time of purchase that it didn't come with any documentation. But the ad did say that it supports multiple monitors, which is the reason i bought it. The PCI card has a VGA, an S-Video & RCA connectors, so i got a VGA monitor splitter & hooked up my two monitors (one is a flat panel, the other is a CRT). In my display properties (win XP) I can see both monitors. In the display drop down menu there's 2 monitors listed, they're both default monitor on Radeon 9200 LE family, except that the second one is listed as the secondary (SEC). The problem I'm having is that both monitors are displaying the same thing. The second monitor in the settings panel of display properties has a dotted line around it, i've right clicked & attached it & clicked the extend my windows desktop onto this monitor option, but it doesn't stay attached & goes back to the dotted line after i apply the settings. I've looked up this video card on the ATI website as well as other reviews of it, & from what i understand it can support 2 monitors. since it doesn't have a DVI output i just imagined that both monitors would be hooked up to the VGA out. -- i looked for an s-video to VGA adapter, but i dont thing they exist.. What am i doing wrong? |
