CRT + TV with a Geforce2 Ti 64

Oni · 09-25-05, 02:25 AM

I got an old computer that I'm planning on turning into an HTPC. It came w/ a GeForce2 Ti that has TV out.

What I would like to do is enable dual monitors in clone mode w/ the CRT and the TV, rather than have to jump back and forth whenever I want to watch a film. Is there any way to do this?

Current driver revisions have dropped support for the GF2 Ti series, so I can't just go w/ newer drivers. Is there just something really simple I'm missing or something?

Thanks!

hey i believe you have to install the latest forceware drivers and then install the WDM driver.

Latest Nvidia Graphics Driver 71.84 for Geforce2 Ti March 11, 2005

WDM 2.26 Latest May 2, 2005 Geforce 2 through Fx GPU's

install graphics driver first !!

Ok, I'ma try this now and report back!

Thanks!

edit: After fighting w/ it for quite a while, I still have no joy. I guess I'ma just have to bounce back and forth from TV to CRT. It won't be that much of a problem.

Thanks!

No, but why would that matter?
