Accessing the TwinView Panel: Windows NT 4.0/2000
If you have only one display device connected, the TwinView panel will only
have Standard (single-display) mode enabled and Clone mode disabled. In
single-display mode, you will not have TwinView Clone mode (Virtual
Desktop) and Video Mirror functionality and will have limited Desktop
Manager functionality. However, you can access the features available through
the Additional Properties button (see “Additional Features and
Enhancements” on page 125) on the NVIDIA GPU pane (Figure 6.10),
provided these features are not TwinView-dependent.
To access the TwinView control panel and all its modes, i.e, Standard, Clone,
and Span, follow these steps:
1
For dual-display functionality, be sure you have at least two display
devices, such as an analog monitor (CRT) and a digital flat panel (DFP) or
TV, connected to your NVIDIA dual-display card.
2 Make sure the cable connections for your devices are well secured from the
device to the graphics card installed on your computer.If you are connecting
a TV, be sure you have the proper cables and connectors that apply to your
TV.
