TV + Games

I just bought myself a new tuner card with the ATI Theatre 550 Pro chip to replace my old Hauppauge WinTV card. The problem I'm having is that I used to use the Hauppauge card to watch TV on a second monitor while I played Warcraft on my main monitor. I can't get SageTV to do this. I've tried messing around with different decoder, interlace and 3D acceleration settings but everytime I start Warcraft the picture on SageTV goes Blank. I still have audio but no picture. Depending on the settings the picture will sometimes come back when I shut down Warcraft but sometimes it won't. Is there any way to set Sage so I can watch TV and play video games at the same time or is the problem with my video card?

Thanks

Are you using 3D acceleration with sage? Windows isn't smart enough to run 2 progams in 3d mode at the same time. It will black out one monitor while the other is in use.
