I have a radeon 7000 on this machine

there are 2 types of 7000's out there afaik... but thats irrelevant..

I believe it has dual ramdacs (low speed ramdacs but dual none-the-less)

you should therefore be able to work on your desktop and configure your secondary ramdac to output a separate img to the tv.. so you SHOULD be able to do what you want to do...

I would recommend using a 3rd party app instead of hydravision though... but perhaps you can do your configuration through the control panel itself...

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
