??? Sapphire Radeon 9600xt 128 mb, Monocrome tv connection

Hi !!

ive just installed a Sapphire Radeon 9600 Xt card. I downloaded the latest ati drivers,
ATI Radeon CATALYST 4.1 Driver Suite. And installed them.
But i cant get anything than monocrome tv out put when i connect the s-video cable....
My system is Win XP SP1, and a MSI MEGA PC with a P4, 2,4 GHZ Cpu.

Any suggestions ?

Ah I dont think you are understanding


Right Click on your Desktop

Click on Properties

Select the Settings tab

Click on the Advanced button

Select the Displays tab

Click on the bar that says TV

That will open up an options menu for your TV

Make sure that it is not set to Black and White in that area.

Ive had that problem as well and it usually came out to either a bad connector on the tv or a bad cable
