Jump to PostWhat were you trying to do? It sounds like you wanted your Laptop to show up though the TV. And you said you saw your desktop right? thats what you wanted? I think you may need to eleborate the question ;).
Jump to PostI'm guessing you have to setup the system as if there are 2 monitors. I'm guessing that windows thinks the TV is a secondary monitor, perhaps an extention of the desktop, and you could essentially DRAG windows from your laptop monitor to your TV (monitor).
