monitor shuts down on install

ok, I have an nVidia GeForce FX5200 with dual view. The problem is when I try to install RedHat 9, when the Anaconda installer begins, my primary monitor shuts down and my secondary display (hooked to my tv) shows a garbled image of the graphical installer...

is there a way to tell the installer that my graphics card is dual view and make it use the primary display and not the secondary one?

Well, have you tried unhooking your secondary display, install RH, and then hook it back up?
Is your tv card supported by RH? Start here to find out: http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/

yeap... it ignores my primary display even when unhooking the s-video connector... there is actually a driver called nvidia geforce fx generic but it does no good to it...
