well i bought a cable with the three colors for tv and and s-video and audio plug for the computer. i was told to shut off tv and cpu, then plug stuff in then TURN on. when i turn on cpu it starts beeping then an error message pops up saying trap 00000006=====exception and i have to unplug s video cord and restart for the cpu to turn on. im not sure what to do please helpHave you tried plugging in the s-video cable to the computer after the computer's already on?

The difficult part of going from s-video to rca is that often the computer will have trouble autodetecting what type of DISPLAY it is (or won't even TRY).I don't think they are going to RCA, perhaps RGB or component? I say this because S-video does not carry sound, so a S-vid to RCA would only have a yellow, not 3

If your graphics card does not have the correct drivers (EG windows ones rather than the ATi or nVidia ones) It may not operate corrently, also, if the graphics card does not support TV-out it will not work.

What is the brand and model of your card?Quote from: Kurtiskain on July 21, 2009, 08:43:00 PM
