Starting Windows® with television display enabled
The television screen may become scrambled temporarily during the initial Windows® logo display. This is only a temporary effect, and your television screen will be restored within a few seconds.
During start up, your TV Out graphics card will go through a sequence of mode settings, during which your television display will remain blank. This process takes only a few seconds, and helps program the television display.
Using a monitor vs. using the television display
Using your television for your computer’s display is ideal for playing games, giving presentations, watching movies, and browsing the Internet. The display on your monitor may change or look squashed. This occurs because the display adjusts to fit the dimensions of your television. To correct the monitor’s display, use the controls on the monitor to adjust the display size and position.
