I've got the same computer, had this feature running over the years with all
the evolutions of OS, Win 95, Win 98 and now Win 2000.

The feature you are trying to enable so you can see your desktop on a TV
screen. This also works well.

To view a dvd, just play it, and the DVD picture will automatically be poped
out the middle hole on the side of the EVA. Just make sure that the EVA is
OK in the device manager. It's normally on IRQ 11 shared with lotsa other
devices on that IRQ. The trick is to make sure there isn't an unknown
multimedia device in device manager, that means you have to get the drivers
in there correctly.

HTH,
Andreas!!
