Changing Display Configurations

If you move your PC to a place where you are using TV display only, make sure that you have the TV display feature enabled.

You can set your display resolution as high as 1024x768. However, higher resolutions will result in a virtual desktop. If a TV is your only display device and a higher mode is selected, the display on your TV will disappear.

Using Games and Applications

Some older games and applications may program your RADEON™ 9000 PRO directly, to run under a specific display mode. This may cause your TV display to turn off automatically or become scrambled (the PC monitor will not be affected). Your TV display will be restored once you exit the game or if you restart your PC.
