help with win 7.

Post by leo mc cabe »

hi all and happy holidays.

i have problems getting resolume to pick up display 2, i have searched all the forums and applied all the necessary tips and bug fixes, updated drivers and what not, but i still have no output to display 2
incace resolume wont see it at all.

i use win 7 on a sony viao with nividea gt230m

i put the 3d tab in the nvidea panel for "compatability mode" still no joy.

another thing, if i usr control f7 to select "connect to a projector" the desk top appears on the projector, and the laptop displays nothong only the plain desktop back ground, but i can move the mouse arrow into the laptop screen

i have identified all the correct screen settings with window 7

Hi Leo, it sounds like you have everything set up right for a dual screen performance, but your screens are reversed (screen 1 should be laptop and 2 should be projector - This can be verified by right-clicking on the background, choosing "Screen Resolution" and pressing "Identify". Chances are, you'll see a "1" on the projector and a "2" on the laptop screen.)

No idea why this has happened, but things should still work just fine. From the same "Screen Resolution" panel, click on your laptop screen and choose "Make this my main display". Your taskbar/clock etc should now move back to the laptop screen.

Open Resolume and drag it to your laptop screen. Make it full size.

Select a clip.

Use the Keyboard shortcuts to make a full screen output from resolume on the projector (it'll either be Ctrl+Shift+1 or Ctrl+Shift+2)

To exit full screen mode, it's "Ctrl+Shift+D"

Hope this helps...
