Hey Jim,
I have no idea. This sounds like a problem I had on Windows when I
had dual monitor running on a laptop I had. I had to put the window
showing movies etc on the primary screen. Therefore, to do TV out, I
had to use only the TV out display and not use the laptop monitor at
all. This was a nVidia 420Go ?!?!?
Someone tried telling me it was to do with my overlay settings but I
didn't understand that.
Sorry I could not be anymore help,
Dave
Ps - Stop tearing your hair out...you may need/want it later in life!!!
