So I have my computer pretty close to my television. I'd like to watch downloaded movies on my HDTV without having to burn it on DVD.

I'd rather not have to fiddle w/ the cables whenever I want to watch a movie.

Can I get my PC to display both to the computer monitor (VGA) and to the HDTV (DVI to HDMI cable) at the SAME TIME, through software settings?

I'm using an old Nvidia Geforce 6800.

Thanks.

 

if your video card will run two monitors, yes

 

Ok, I just found my answer after searching on google. Thanks to you too Drew.
