This sounds dumb....but how do you connect the PC/Laptop to the TV??
I've shoved in the S-Video cable from PC & Laptop to the S-Video-IN on the TV...switched to the S-Video channel and everything is in Black and White.
Also, if i dont put Windows into extended monitor, then i wont see anything at all.
My mate recommended me to get a S-Video to Scart...but surely the S-Video->S-Video should work a-ok??
Advice please....
Many thanks

Are both set of equipment from PAL equipped countries e.g. UK?Originally Posted by psychy
Is the TV set to PAL/NTSC (some older TVs allow you to change this!
At the moment I'm using a SVHS - Single Phono cable and it works perfectly.
Woohoo now Assistant Manager!
Everything is UK PAL. Which is why i dont understand....really annoying me...
Not too sure, but may I just make the recommendation to check that no pins are bent or broken (I've done that a few times now) and that you have the latest drivers for your graphics card.
Woohoo now Assistant Manager!
Is tv-out on your PC set to composite or s-video?
Right after playing around with the laptop....i can get the tv to display colour. But only as part of an extended screen....not as the primary screen.
How can i get the laptop to use the tv as the display and not the monitor?
In the display settings there is usually an option for setting the primary and secondary displays (may just be for monitors and not TV.)
Woohoo now Assistant Manager!
Tis what i thought, but i can't seem to find it.
What gfx is it? I think radeon hydravision or sommit has a tab in the properties for selecting tv's as primary.
