| 377083 | 2005-07-31 11:30:00 | Thanks Trev, Connectiong to the TV with the cable that plugs into the "yellow" coded socket on both comp and TV (think it may be called coaxil?) | Chrisj (8633) | ||
| 377084 | 2005-07-31 12:11:00 | output is proberly in ntsc. some cards have a jumber on them to change it. needs to be pal. tho most tv's these days are multi standard but pal is better than ntsc. also if your are useing the svideo-rca adapter some need a special adaptor rather than the usual one. |

| 377085 | 2005-07-31 21:53:00 | Hey if you are actually using a s-video connection (a round pulg with 4 pins? and a square peg in it) you may have a faulty lead. One or more of the pins in these leads carry the colour information and if its is broken all you get is black and white. I had this problem before when my girlfriend was too forceful in connecting cable and bent one of the pins. Hope this helps. Pico |

| 377089 | 2005-08-02 21:11:00 | Have you figured out what kind of connection there is between your computer and tv. As I am aware there are only two main connections, rca composite and s-video. If you are still unsure see if the connector on the tv is labelled as anything. Did you try using a different cable? Also if your graphics card has both options available maybe you could try the other. | pico (4752) | ||
| 377090 | 2005-08-03 07:00:00 | I had the same problem, but found a botton on the tv that when pressed switches between, auto,pal,pal60, and NTSC 4.43 the later is the one it has to be on for me to get colour. :) | G-Boy (6793) | ||
