VIdeo Card S-Video Out HOW ?

I just purchased a Phillips "55" HDTV that has 2 S-Video plugs, in for in and one for out, and I have a MSI GeForce 4 Ti4600 That has S-VIdeo out - I bought the cable and hooked it up but cant seem to ever see what is on my monior on my TV?

Is there a setting in windows or the nVidia settings, or is there a certain thing to use in the TV for svideo out?

Anyone that has done this please respond

usually you have to set the tv to line one / two or to input to see incomming video signal that is not regular tv cable...

Are you sure you want to bottleneck your HDTV and GeForce 4 Ti 4600 to sub GeForce 2 MX levels?
Forget S-video, use a VGA to Component cable(the type with a VGA plug on one end and several BNC plugs on the other) or a DVI cable.

Check out the display settings under control panel. Some vid cards can only have one output going at a time.

I have an old schoold gforce 2 and need to tell it to output s-vid instead of vga.

Boot up with only the S-Video attached, then connect the monitor. The S-video has to be the primary display.

That would be good if you want better quality and don't mind paying a big more for the adapter.

You need to look at your nView settings. Just go to the display properties, advanced, and then your video card. Then there should be a tab that says nview. It should give your options about your primary display and such.
