    Hello everyone,
    I'm not sure if I'm in the right section for this, but that's the best match I could find.
    There it goes -

    I've just bought a new PHILIPS LED TV 46", and I'm struggling on using it with my notebook(An Asus G72GX).
    My questions:
    1 - I managed to split the images with nView, I made the laptop the one with the desktop, at its highest res of 1600x900 and the TV stayed without anything(only with the desktop wallpaper), at 1920x1080.
    But then, how do I make the applications appear on my TV? Can I, for exemple, play PES2010 at full hd on the TV, despite the res cap of the laptop? How would I do that?
    2 - I could make my TV reproduce movies from my laptop, but no audio came from the TV, only from the laptop. How do I make it work ?(Ive checked and it says on nView that the audio was enabled)

    Thanks a lot in advance and sorry for my bad english.
    Hope you guys can help :) see ya!

    1) you might have to set the TV as the primary display... or disable the laptop screen...
    2) you might have to go to the audio settings and right click on the HDMI->set as default device.... then close and reopen the application
