631212 2008-01-17 06:21:00 RCA will be better. What videocard drivers are installed? ATI or Nvidia? Speedy Gonzales (78)

631215 2008-01-17 11:14:00 it's probably set to NTSC and your TV is PAL only - causes black and white picture, some cards have the option somewhere in the setup.

SVideo is slightly better than composite so stick with it if you can, unless you can use component or better.

631216 2008-01-17 22:34:00 Check you TV type and make sure it is set correctly. Depending on what version of the drivers you have you either select your country or PAL/NTSC/SECAM.

For NZ you wont PAL-B.

Clone mode will display on the TV what you see on the monitor just remember to make the monitor the primary display.

Also depending on what version of the drivers you use it may be a bit tricky to get full screen movie playback on the TV. If you have the older drivers there is an option to make overlay full screen on secondary display but for newer drivers this option is not present and you have to use dual view and drag the media player to the secondary display and make it full screen.
