TV + Computer

[Flexifoil]

Can i have 2 monitors and on one use a tv tuner to watch tv then on the other i can surf the internet at the same time.

If you can do you need to buy a lead or what? Also how much to connect them?

Thanks for any help.

Yes, just buy a $2 coax splitter, run the TV cable to your tv tuner, and put the TV as fullscreen on your other monitor.

cool, also if i wasnt watching tv could i turn it off and use both screens as a computer say so i could play CSS on one screen and have messenger on the other?

Yep, just get a video card that has multiple heads and you are all set

get the video and s-video cable. go to display properties and extend the desktop instead of cloning it. I use clone so I can watch video on my moniter and tv at the same time
