Can't see DVD video on my DLP projector (using PowerDVD to..

[Guest]

I have the following setup:

Infocus LP335 DLP projector with DVI cable
Windows XP
Video card with dual DVI's (one connected to my LCD monitor, the other to my DLP projector).

Both the projector and my LCD monitor are set to 1024X768 resolution (both displaying the same image).

When I play a DVD on my computer using PowerDVD, the DVD displays fine on my LCD monitor, but on my projector, the DVD image is black (I can see everything else though!). I tried WinDVD, but same thing.

What can I do to remedy this problem?

Thank you!

DVD movies are intensive video.
Try to disable the laptop monitor whilst viewing the DVD via the
projector. Usually something like F12 on the laptop. That might work.
Or make the projector your primary monitor in your video card settings.
