Using TV Out 39
Starting Windows® with TV Display Enabled
The TV screen may become scrambled during the initial Windows® logo
display. This distortion is only a temporary effect, and your screen will be
restored within a few seconds.
During start up, your RADEON™ X800 PCIe Series will go through a
sequence of mode settings, during which your TV display will remain
blank. This process takes only a few seconds and programs the TV display.
To enable or disable the TV display
1
Access the Windows® Control Panel. Double-click Display.
2
Click the Settings tab and then the Advanced button.
3
Click the ATI Displays tab. Click the TV button.
4
Click the enable button or disable button accordingly.
5
Click OK or Apply to save the changes.
Using and Adjusting TV Display Features
For information about how to adjust TV display features, right-click the
ATI taskbar icon, point to Help, then point to ATI Television Display.
TV Display Hardware Restrictions
A TV cannot be left connected to the graphics card if two analog monitors
are connected to your RADEON™ X800 PCIe Series card, even if the TV
is off and not enabled in the software.
Similarly, an analog monitor connected to the DVI-I connector should not
be left connected to your RADEON™ X800 PCIe Series card when TV
Out is enabled. In both cases, your RADEON™ X800 PCIe Series will
become overloaded, resulting in a dim image on all devices.
