ok so i got this scart to s-video adapter. i hooked it up last night, and all i can see is in TV is distorted black and white "image".

the TV seems to respond to any changes i make in NTUNE, but the picture in Tv is just fuzzy.

any1 got any ideas, how to get the picture clear.

Hmm, make sure that it's set up for video out in the nvidia control panel. I had this issue before and it was caused by the settings being wrong.

A: your TV might not support s-video, force a composite signal
B: Connect pin 15 to pin 20 in your scart converter.

I´ve tried all kinds of settings in ntune. can u point out where the video out setting might be???

@DAN how can i force composite??

I´ve heard similar probs with VISTA so could it be that i have XP x64????

Don't have an NV card here to check exactly. Just open up that converter and connect pin 15 to pin 20. It's the best solution.

what would that help?? i checked the scart connector pins and pin 15 seems to be RGB Red In / Chrominance

and pin 20 Composite Video In.

does that convert the signal to composite??

Is it set to the correct region? ie PAL or NSTC, I had a similar problem a while back cos it was set to NSTC and I got a black and white fuzzy image.
