Ive got an NVIDIA GeForce4 MX440 with AGP8X graphics card with TV out and S-video
Ive tried hooking it up to my TV (Sony) using S-video & TV out (using a yellow lead from PC to TV & a yellow, black & red to Scart)
On each configuration neither my TV or PC does anything (and yes the TV is on
) I've even played with the input settings on the TV and had no joy
can anyone shed some light / offer instructions ?
do i need to activate or install a driver for the TV out/S-video, cos i can't find it on the graphic card settings
cheers

Simple question but have you configured the video card so that it will output to the S Video connector and/or the yellow composite connector? I didn't do this the first time I connected my lap top to my TV.
