No prob

A lot of those second monitor able video cards are not really good.
A lot of them miss functionality on the second monitor like hardware
accelarating and overlay support.

YEAH - It went back to not working again so I hunted down where to find
your suggestion. It took me some hunting but for the benefit of others,
I found it in Tools > Options > Performance > Advanced. And there are
two, one for video acceleration, and one for DVD video. I took the
checkmark out of both and it works.

Thanks Erwin!
