Hi!

I have a Laptop and a 2nd Monitor plugged to it. But everytime is
start Onyx, Onyx starts the fullscreen output on my laptop and on the
seconds screen there happens just nothing. I can use Onyx only if i
close the fullscreen output first with ESC and ALT+F4 or if i unplug
any 2nd Monitor so the fullscreen doesnt start at all... I tried every
Option there is in Windows 7 for a 2nd Screen/Projector...

I Hope you can help me, i'd love to use Onyx!!

how do you plug your screen?
s-video, composite, vga, hdmi dvi displayport etc etc?
which videocard do you have?
which os?
 
i work on nvidia m8600gt on windows seven
 to me it happen sometimes only in s-video 2nd output, if i use as first screen a vga monitor and i switch off the laptop screen..
so the s-video become 3rd screen and vga is second, first is off (as windows call them)
but the vjing softwares don't recognise this names and think that 3rd is first, so the output go to vga and preview to the projectors...
i solve this problem, opening the nvidia controlla panel, then connect cables and then select which monitor is on which is off etc etc

hi!

Thanks for the Answer!

I use a VGA plug for the screen..
Videocard: Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family
OS: windows 7 professional

But its working now anyway :)
I changed some Settings in the Properties of my Intel Graphics Media
Accelerator Driver and I used a Hotkey for a "Flatscreen adjustment
activate/deactivate"
Dont know really what i did but its working now :D
