Unhappy clone display, monitor + TV "out of reach"

Hello!

I have been watching movies from TV screen via computer (S-video). I have geforce 7800GTX as a video card and all has been well and good...

Until I installed the latest Nvidia series7 display drivers. First I ran a TV wizard for cloneview using computer and TV and then it asked to restart computer which I duly delivered. While XP was starting, all went well, I could see the screen both in TV and on computer screen. When XP came on, I could only see it through my computer screen, TV screen went "hazy". Now, when I go to nvidia control panel and try to put "clone", it says "out of reach" on my computer screen (which is restored to original settings after 15 secs) and there is "hazy" screen on TV while that is happening (so it seems to try to put wrong resolution I guess...)

Anyway, all was well before I changed the drivers (don't remember which drivers I had though), and when I did the cloning, my monitor just went to "tv resolution" (e.g. very low res) and I could then watch anything. Now it just says "out of reach" at my computer when trying to clone and TV doesnt show the picture either.

I don't know if this was apprehensible, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Greetings
maz

It worked before the update?
Windows probably still has the old drivers-- unless you wiped them-- you can "roll-back" the drivers from Device Manager.

Try configure independently(dual view) maybe.

Check windows settings as well as NVIDIA.
