FS9 On TV

I have an ATI Radeon 9800 DeLuxe video card. How can I play  flight simulation on my TV screen? I understand that there is cable I have to use. Do I have to disconnect my monitor?

Thanks.

I think it depends on the TV as to what cable you can use. I have ancient TV's that use ancient RF cables.

If you go into your graphics card settings you'll see a "dual view" option or similar to enable the second display. Sorry, I haven't done it in so long, I've forgotten the details.

I think that Radeon card has an "S" video out.  You connect that to your TV and then configure it'ssetup in the Catalyst Control Center.

The ATI website has a whole tutorial on that stuff.

If your TV does not accept "S" input......... not sure what you can do.

best,

you can get a S-video to RCA jack converter/adapter as well if the tv does not have s-video input.

Just my two cents, Good luck! ;)
