I just got a nice 2" TFT LCD Monitor for $20 with extras and I am planning to mount it to my computer. Before I do that though, I need to get it set up properly.

First of all it uses a composite connection, not vga. I want to make my comp do dual monitors with it, but the display settings wont allow me to enable both TV(composite) and Monitor(VGA) at the same time?!!?

I was going to get a composite to VGA adapter, but those are to expensive when I already know that I should be able to have dual monitors with composite and VGA. BTW, I have a 9800 pro and I am using svidio-composite connector for video.

Any ideas on how I could enable dual monitors?

Or is there an easy manual way to make a VGA - Composite adapter?

You should be able to enable dual monitors by going to Display properties, going to Settings tab, Advanced, then the Displays tab. It should have a box that shows your main monitor, and another box with the 2' LCD. Click on the "On" button on that box, and it should work.
 
^^^ thats what I thought and thats what I did, but it wont let me enable them both at the same time:(
