I have a monitor and would like to make my TV show the same thing as my
desktop, I could do this in XP, but it seem all I can do in Vista is extend
my desktop.

How would I make my TV show the same thing as my monitor?

the same way you did it on xp.. assuming you have the correct driver
installed

You might want to look at:

They have a beta release for Vista that actually gives you a far more
useful multi monitor setup. I personally prefer using an operating
system built-in multi monitor support that doesn't require me to cripple
my main screen as a clone to watch something on my TV.

Hi,
Only by connecting a S-video cable between you TV and the PC it is working
fine.

Thank you everyone for your help, but unfortunately I still can't get it to
work.

To Stephan Rose: I downloaded that ultramon trial, but can't find any option
that allows me to reproduce my monitors image on another monitor/TV.

To corbomite: The layout is different in Vista than in XP, I had a plethora
of options and it was easy to do, not its simple with only a extend monitor
box and a resolution bar, with a screen that allows me to move my secondary
monitor.

To Huib: That has been done. Thats how I got the extend monitor to work, now
I am looking for a way to replicate my monitor on the TV rather than
extending it.
