BlackStone 66 Posted December 21, 2012 I recently got a HDMI cord to connect my laptop to my TV. I've finally gotten the resolution on the TV to work to a good degree. My only problem now is getting the games to display on the TV screen instead of on the laptop screen while still offering me the Extended Display option.Basically, I'm using the TV as a monitor for the laptop and I want the games to play on the monitor not the laptop. I'm running Windows Vista. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SexyBatman 705 Posted December 21, 2012 Do you have it set up as a second screen for the TV or duplicating view for both? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SexyBatman 705 Posted December 21, 2012 Or just run the game in border-less windowed mode and drag it over to the TV if possible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blob 1985 Posted December 21, 2012 Vista SP2 is not a bad OS... it's better than XP at least. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dojima 7619 Posted December 21, 2012 Nope. Never had any issues with Vista. I found about 10 bugs/shitty features within the first hour I used W7. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElectronicDrug 7496 Posted December 25, 2012 I had 40 laptops running vista. When I switched them all to win 7 my support calls each day went from like 8 to .5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
