i have just installed the above card which is supposedly the tv out version, the problem is the tv out dont work!<BR>i have attached all the leads correctly using svideo and then the adaptor to normal socket but still no picture on my tv.<BR>any ideas anybody please?

[Colin]

Have you enabled it in your drivers? Also, how old is this TV? If the TV out connector on the videocard don't recieve a certain ammount of resistance it won't be enabled.

make sure that your tv is on its AUX or video channel...i ran my pc to my tv last night to watch swordfish (great f***ing movie!!!) and it drove me nuts till i pulled out my tv's manual.....

thx for all the help fellas, i have tried all the above to no avail.<BR>my tv is a tosh 32" widescreen with 3scarts etc, do you think i need to use a scart adaptor to get it going?

[CygnusX1]

is there a VCR conncectd to the TV? i was also sucessful going w/ the s-video out, to rca video in on my vcr...ran through my aux channel on my vcr..like hooking up camcorder to vcr for viewing video on camera...just a thought...

Great! deanjuk, what did you do to fix it?

[deanjuk]

i bought a proper dvd/pc scart adaptor set, but on my tv i had to switch the incoming scart channel to non digital video, otherwise it wouldnt work.<BR>thanks to all you guys that replied, its been a real help <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
