Hey eveyone,
I have a geforce 8800GTX video card and what I want to do is run my monitor at 1280x1240 and my TV as my second display. I want it to clone but be at 800x600 so my desktop will fit on the screen just fine. As of right now I have it CLONING my desktop but it is not at 800x600 even though I have set the TV as 800x600. It seems to just copy what my monitor's resolution is and ignoring what I set it to. If I change my monitors display to 800x600 my TV is mimic it and fix my desktop perfectly on the TV. But I don't want to have 800x600 on my monitor. I hope I have explained my issue well enough. If more information is needed jsut let me know please. Oh and by the way I'm using the NVIDIA display drivers.Typically the Nvidia driver will only allow you to set custom display RESOLUTIONS if you extend your desktop onto the second monitor. Mirroring is what you are doing and that uses exactly the same settings as the display mirrored. You should find the using the extend option allows you to set custom resolutions, however you will not get your icons or taskbar.wow, that does WORK. Thanks for that. I guess the mirroring just WONT work then?
