|  Enabling TV out on GeForce 6600GT
I have never used TV out before and would like to use it using my new graphics card. The card is a evga e-GeForce 6600GT and I have downloaded and installed the latest drivers from Nvidia. Now I would just like to know how I enable TV out using my graphics. I plugged it in using an S video wire that came with the card and the other end has all sorts of female ends. So, I just use the regular yellow video plug and used a video wire to plug it in to my TV and all I get is black and white scrabbled screen.
So, can anybody help me? If you need to know than my OS is WinXP Home SP2. |

Your cord is not pushed in all the way. Push them together as hard as you can and see if a picture appears on the screen. My 6800 has that problem sometimes.

But if it is slightly out than it shows that scrabbled screen.

Yea...I seen how to do this on someother site I stumbled upon while googling this question and I do not have NView, at least not in the advanced display settings. I do have it in my tray, but it is actually called nView Desktop Manager and I go that and there is nothing about cloning. Here I will get a pic.
See. no clone. Any other suggestions? | |

If you right click on your desktop and go to NVIDIA DISPLAY, do you see another thing to click besides ANALOG? | |

I got it to work. What I did was go to the nView Desktop Manager and than I clicked on show NView Toolbar and I clicked on both toggle clone mode and toggle TV output until it worked.
Now I am just having a problem with seeing divx and xvid videos using clone mode. I got it to work in TV output, but than my computer screen is turned off. Anybody know how I can get it to work in clone mode?
PS (edited in): I guess I did need the yellow videp wire plugged in all the way.
