PC games on HDTV - Dec 17, 2004 13:54
Anybody here playing there PC games on there HDTV? If so, I could use some help trying to find the correct way to do this using the dualview option on my nvidia 5600 ultra card. I want to use my HDTV as the secondary monitor, but still have the games show up on it. right now, games only show up on my PC monitor, and my tv is shows desktop.

Register, change the " theme" to grey because the default color is atroucious to look at, go to their " Home Theater Gaming" forum near the bottom, and find lots of people who use their PC' s as mega-expensive game machines.

Thanks for the link Joe, I' m going to go check it out. Although I did just download and install Nvidia' s latest drivers, and that has solved a lot of the problems I was having with the refresh rates, so right now It' s pretty sweet. I just have to deal with the overscan problem, but apparently Powerstrip takes care of that, so I' ll have to download it.

I have yet to play a game on HDTV for PC....I can' t imagine what Half Life 2 would be like on HDTV....possibly throwing in a little dolby surround on that. wow...that would be awesome.
