Again, that black and white TV output problem....

When connecting to the TV (samsung) via S video I get a black and white picture.
I have a PC with XP (service pack 2) and nvidia.
I’ve made the followings :
- go to nvidia control panel
- go to nView display settings
- click on the tv , dual view
- click the device setting button, then choose select tv format, then choose advanced
- under "Video Output Format" select composit S-video-out
- set the output to be N/Pal (for Romania, but I am not so sure).

When I start the computer (desktop) the TV output is in colour. It stays in colour until the blue XP welcome screen is displayed where upon it goes black and white.

It is not a cabling issue, because the cable works until windows loads its drivers.
I can not put the Tv on AV-S video channel, because it is an old TV, without this function.

Asking for help. Thank you.

Cristina

Be sure it is staying in s-video mode, and is not being switched to composite.
