I currently have 2 17" 1280x1024 monitors running in "Dual-View" mode.

I also may be able to get my hands on a working projector. However, My video card doesn't support 2 DVI and one S-video at once. I would have to turn off an LCD, Turn on the projector, Then reconfigure my settings.

So, as an alternative, I could just duplicate the signal from my secondary monitor and send it to the projector. This way, I could just run videos full screen on the secondary monitor and the projector.

Any ideas on how to achieve this? The only DVI splitters i have seen either had 3 reviews that said they didn't work, Or cost $300 up.

PS: Quality is not a big concern, As the projector will end up displaying on a 52" Max area. It will project on the ceiling, And if I ever want better quality, I will just add a second GFX card.
