Good afternoon all,
Has anyone tried to run win xp under boot camp on a mac book 13" and output the view to a large screen tv with apple's min dv to s-video converter? I updated the intel 945 driver, but I don't have an option for the second display to be a tv. I am trying to view netflix streaming movies on the tv between dvd's from them. Any guidance would be of great help.

Thank you, captaa

In Windows you need to go into the display controls and turn on the second display. Search here in the Networking forum to see the somewhat tricky details about making this work.
