hey!

I have a problem - my gfx-card is a bfg8800gfx oc - suddenly my tv-out doesn't work. I can choose, dual sceens ect. in "nview display settings", but no picture on the tv. Even without no cable in the tv, i can still choose dual sceens ect. in "nview display settings".
Furthermore the device manager shows multiple screens;
see screenshot;

hmmm....i'll try that, but the tv-out worked perfectly before, without VIVO driver! It seems strange to me that i can choose a second screen when no other monitor is connected.

*just found out - 8800 serie doesn't use vivo

it cant be the cable - it works perfectly on my laptop.
Do u think i could be a malfunction in the tv-out part of the card??
