nvidia gefore fx 5900 tv out problem
Hi
i have a geforce fx 5900 and im trying to make it work on my 15" television using the adapter and the RCA video cable given with the kit
When I boot the computer it will apear on the TV and monitor but as soon as windows loads the TV will stop displaying and go black
Im running windows XP with amd XP 2000+ and 256mb pc2700
Ive tried every possible combination with the nview display mode and I have unsuccessfully managed to make it work
here is the odd parts
on my cd I have the detonator 44.3 drivers, when those drivers are installed the nview is in my settings but I cant make the TV to display my desktop. I was told it was because i needed newer drivers so I download version 45.23 now when I reboot the nview is not in the settings any more!
even if I reinstall the WDM drivers the nview still does not show so if I reinstall version 44.3 then it shows up again!
why does it do that?
Now here is the other odd thing
I even tried to use the nvidia refresh rate fix to put all resolution to a default 60hertz refresh rate because I was told a TV must be at 60 aven then it doesnt work
I also tried every resolution going as low as 640x480
Now this is what I dont get
If i go to add/remove and uninstall the nvidia drivers and reboot IT WORKS
My screen show up on the TV (clone)
what is up with that?
How come when I install the nvidia detonator drivers it doesnt work and when I uninstall them and dont reinstall them it works!
this really puzzles me because it doesnt make any sence
I hope someone can provide me with some answer or maybe a way to actually make it work with the latest detonator drivers!
