    Hi everybody. I’m trying to connect my PC with Panasonic HDTV with S-video. I have laptop Dell Insparion 6000 with win XP Pro. I’m able to get only wallpaper from the PC on the TV but not the folders and the applications. Sometimes I can see mouse cursor moving on the TV ( I will lose it on the PC). Can someone tell me what’s going on and how to fix it.
    Thanks

    yeah....that's because your display isn't mirrored it's just extended. you won't see the folders on tv unless you have your dual monitors set to mirror. you can drag stuff like winamp and other things over to the tv side to be able to run more apps without running out of room.

    Thanks for your replay,
    I want to watch video from internet, so I can drag a web site directly to second monitor? Is there another way to see everything from the PC to TV without dragging( how to mirror them)?
