Problems using external T.V as external second monitor vai S-Video

[Taksal]

I have a Sony VAIO VGN-AR41L laptop running with Windows Vista. I saw many people connecting their TVs and using it as external monitor. So even I connected my T.V to the laptop using S-Video and did all settings from system control panel as well as nVidia control panel. The setup was working great but only until I started another application.

The main problem started when I tried playing the game, Battlefield 2. When I launch the game it moves directly to the second monitor and probably far right of and off the screen. When I try to pull it in the middle, it gets minimize to taskbar automatically. Tried getting some help from internet but dint found anything helpful.

Somebody please provide some working solution. Many thanks.

In what resolution are you trying to play the game? I’m asking this because there are few S-Video that supports resolution upto 1024x7868, rest all wont work proper with higher resolution than 800x600. You need to check about this.
