based card and you have at least two display devices connected to your

card. You can use the basic procedure described here to switch between

any devices that are connected.

1 Right-click from your Windows desktop and click Properties and the

Settings tab to display the Settings panel (Figure 7.1).

example uses the GeForce3 GPU-based card (Figure 7.2) with Analog

Monitor (CRT) enabled.

the output device (Analog Monitor, Digital Flat Panel, or TV) that is enabled
