I've recently ran an S-video from the onboard Geforce4 MX video to a VCR. I used an S-video to RCA adapter, tested and not the issue. I am able to receive a signal with color during POST and at WinXP splash screen at bootup. After loading display adapter drivers, after WinXP Splash Screen, I lose all color and receive just a black and white signal on the TV. I have tried six different drivers and all with mixed results. When I am able to load WinXP, using Nvidia driver version 42.43, I receive a color signal. I am then unable to view any movies within Windows Media Player 9.0 on the TV but they will play with no issues on the monitor.
Nvidia Display Adapter Driver Versions Tried/Results:
v41.07 - B&W signal on TV/unable to play movies in WMP 9.0
v42.43 - Color signal on TV/unable to play movies in WMP 9.0
v43.45 - B&W signal on TV/unable to play movies in WMP 9.0
v45.32 - B&W signal on TV/unable to play movies in WMP 9.0
v52.14 - B&W signal on TV/Able to play movies in WMP 9.0
v52.16 - B&W signal on TV/unable to play movies in WMP 9.0
v53.03 - B&W signal on TV/able to play movies in WMP 9.0
I can smell how close I am to solving this issue, but if anybody has any suggestions for what drivers version to install...I'm up for some advice. I need to have both a color signal and be able to view movies within WMP 9.0 on the TV. PC Specs are right below Thanks in advance!
