I dint know if this is the right thread or not. What it is, I have my 20" LCD monitor, and a LG 19" television, and Im trying to set them up as a duel to play my games. Up to now all I'm getting is the sound out of my LG with the desktop of my system. Were my 20" Monitor is playing the game. I have DVI to the 20" LCD, were I have HDMI to the LG, i'm running the ATI 5670, and a Intel E6550 2.33Ghz CPU. Any ideas on how to spread the game across the two.:(
 
UPDATE

What it is, I have DVI to my monitor, and HDMI to my 19 inch television. Would i be right in thinking that i would need a "Y" DVI splinter to both, or "Y" splinter HDMI to both, to get the game running across both screens. If thats the case, then my 20" monitor which has a DVI, but does not have HDMI, and my 19" tele, has a HDMI, but not a DVI. So would I be right in thinking that I would need 2 monitors with HDMI or DVI for that.:(
 
If you want games over multiple monitors, you're going to have to use screens with the same resolution if you're to use ATi's Eyefinity.

Thanks for that. My tele is a full HD, were my monitor is 1680x 1050.
