Can't use DVI while Dual Screens Are Working
i didn't really know where to ask this question...but here is my problem
i have had 2 screens (Acer x223w) one for my 360 Via DVI port with DVI/HDMI Adapter and the other screen for my PC use.
i use a crappy NVIDIA GeForce 9200
i just bought a new HDMI could and HDMI to DVI adapter so i could dual screen my PC when i wasn't playing xbox.
but when i am dual screening and want to switch to the DVI to play xbox it doesn't allow me.
the steps i use to do before having 2 screens is go into Menu>Input>Input Source>DVI-D and it would go to my xbox.
but ever since i have had 2 screens running my PC it forces me back to the PC screen when i try to switch to the DVI to play Xbox.
Screen 1 is hooked up to my computer with HDMI
screen 2 is hooked up to my computer with VGA and then to the XBOX with a DVI/HDMI adapter and HDMI cord
not really sure if that explains my problem but it is as best as i can do
just wondering if there is anything i can do to fix this.
UPDATE: seems to work if my screens are set to Duplicate instead of extend. if i choose extended it doesn't like me switch to DVI
