    did you boot up with only the svideo cable attached?
    if you did and it still doesn't work, there might be some configuration needed with a monitor attached

    If it is a TV connected via SVideo they are notoriously picky on resolution. You'll have to have a trial and error session to find out what the correct res is.

    Try googling the model number of the TV to see if anyone else has had any lucky?

    Re: I baught a 9500GT but monitor problems :(

    (i had an nvidia card in a htpc before the psu blew up)
    the svideo out would usually work with *just* the svideo cable plugged in to the tv, turn the tv on first and then the computer.

    also try connecting a monitor and setting the resolution as low as you can then try just the svideo cable again.

    if that doesn't work then try having both the monitor and svideo attached and configure it with the monitor.

    Can you not use VGA to the HD TV?

    SVideo doesn't support the native res of a HD set (1366x768 or 1920x1080). You would need VGA or HDMI to do that.

    you're trying to run a HDTV from s-video?

    how many other monitors do you have plugged into the card?

    that's because the OS tries to detect the resolution of the screen at boot up.
    try plugging both in?
    then try and set it up that way
