Are you using software to activate the TV-Out port, such as TV Tool ?

super_si

so why dont you check out the website or the spec on the box if you can do PC to TV with your graphic card?

jfrf

Mine was alos just a black screen
To get mine to work i had to mess around under the display icon in control panel and choose the fact it was a PAL tv.

super_si

Thats the thing do i need to tell the PC its going to TV?

si yes, look in properties from the desktop then settings/advanced/then go through your gf2 settings. There should be a tab in there where u tell it to output via the tv-out port. Well it does on mine anyway

super_si

Si try the XP detonators for your OS from www.nvidia.com. Also make sure the svideo cable is plugged into the TV, as the option will be ghosted out if it isnt, when u go to change it.

The XP dets will give u better performance to.

jfrf

i think to get the tv to highlight i had to change the resolution to another setting just so that it could detect the tv was connected
maybe taht will highlight it???
