I tried connecting the PC to my 37'' LG LCD which has VGA and HDMI ports.
I have an Nvidia 6200 graphic card with DVI and VGA outputs.
Working with Windows XP on Pentium 4.

I want to have a clone/mirror view of both the PC monitor and TV screen. I connectd VGA out to PC Monitor and DVI out - VGA converter - VGA TV . The PC works normal, but the TV shows image only when windows is loading. the second "choose user to login" (i have 2 users login ) screen shows , the image on the TV disappears and "no signal" text is displayed.

I also tried switching connections - connecting DVI to PC monitor and VGA to TV VGA but then i have no signal at all.

When i conected the pc to the tv with VGA to VGA without connecting the PC monitor - i have a great display on the TV with RES. of 1200-736pix.

My DVI to VGA converter is DVI-I so it should support an analog signal.
I also tried switching - connecting DVI to PC monitor and VGA to TV VGA but then i have no signal at all.

Didn't try DVI to HDMI because of the large distance between PC to TV.

Please advise.....
Thanks

Daniel.
