I assume you are running windows xpgo to your control panel click display then the settings tab select screen 2 or the screen you are trying to enable and click apply let me know if that doesnt work!i have hooked a optiplex to a 50" samsung with no problems it was great for poker gta youtube http://www.ur20.com etc !
