9700 Tv out problem

[Adam Smith]

Hi,

Just purchased a dell sytem which came with a 9700 TX graphics card. It has
Tv out but now I have come to use it the picture on the tv is Black and
white and there is no sound. Any ideas?

I have downloaded the latest driver from the dell support website but still
no joy.

Cheers

Adam

Sound would have to come on a separate cable.

What type of cable are you using to plug the video into the TV? Could it
be loose? That could make a black & white picture...

I have the same problem! I believe that the 9700 cable that came with it
needs to be used,it seems to have an extra few pins(the one that goes into
the card....the only problem is that i have to get a converter from the
end(male to female)to fit it into the tv/in cable...they should have
included one....

It is an S Video lead which goes into a scart at the tv end, Seem to have
done everything ok in the setup but just keep getting a black and white
picture.

Thought it may be a common problem with the 9700 TX card or maybe my cable
is not compatible.

You don't have the right TV region selected and TV out doesn't have
sound.
