When I connect my card both to my monitor and TV, there will be a lot of slow down when playing video file such as divx or xvid, using media player classic and even worse windows media player doesn't display colour correctly. Anyone know the solution for this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank's

Hi ar55,
I have a lot of experience with this. nVidia's latest drivers have improved things since last year, and you can now display PC and TV simultaneously :^)
Certain content (ie. video) will not display on TV unless TV is 'primary' display - refresh then becomes 60Hz with maximum PC resolution 1024x768.
If you reboot in this config, you will notice Windows startup screens are different, with different colours... (strange eh?)
But they look normal on the TV display!
A television is a primitive device; very low refresh rate and interlaced display, ugh.
Dunno how to help more, ask back w/ more specifics ie. make & model and nVidia driver version...
Regards
