Starting Windows® with TV Display Enabled
The TV screen may become scrambled during the initial Windows® logo
display. This distortion is only a temporary effect, and your screen will be
restored within a few seconds.
During start up, your RADEON™ X800 will go through a sequence of
mode settings, during which your TV display will remain blank. This
process takes only a few seconds and programs the TV display.
To enable or disable the TV display

2
Click the Settings tab and then the Advanced button.
3
Click the ATI Displays tab. Click the TV button.

TV Display Hardware Restrictions
A TV cannot be left connected to the graphics card if two analog monitors
are connected to your RADEON™ X800 card, even if the TV is off and not
enabled in the software.
Similarly, an analog monitor connected to the DVI-I connector should not
be left connected to your RADEON™ X800 card when TV Out is enabled.
In both cases, your RADEON™ X800 will become overloaded, resulting
in a dim image on all devices.
Using a Monitor vs. Using TV Display
Using your TV for your computer's display can be useful, however, the
display on your monitor may change or looked squashed. This distortion
occurs because the display adjusts to fit the dimensions of your TV. To
correct the monitor's display, use the monitor's control buttons to adjust its
display size and position.
Some single-frequency monitors may not work with TV display enabled. If
you experience problems when TV display is enabled, disable TV display
to restore your monitor's display.
