graphics card adi radeon hd2400 pro - trying to install just to watch tv. get screen 1 and screen 2 ok - how do I make both screens show the same please running in a Compaq presario with no changes to BIOS since I disconected monitor from on board VGA socket and moved to graphics card.

Computer monitor conected from VGA slot , TV connected via HDMI connection and cable to new Samsug flat screen tv. Can get Windows startup screen with wallpaper and icons on monitor (screen 2) and wallpaper only on TV (screen 1). Sometimes I reverse what I have but not sure how!

Have found that if I disable the graphics card then have everything the same on both screen and monitor. Have to use the same resolution on both but at least it works but can only see this as a work around - Can some one help please?
