I'm having trouble connecting my pc to my tv. I have a geforce 6800LE with an s video port on the back. My tv doesn't have an s video port, but I have an adapter that changes s video to the normal yellow video port. When I connect my pc to my tv, everything comes on the screen, but its in black and white. Anybody have any ideas?

Is it a color tv??
J/K
Anyways you can try Tv Tool. Its supposed to work for most Nvidia cards. I used to use it when I had a Nvidia card and it worked well. It may help your problem.Into this mysterious universe we are born, with no apparent set of instructions, no maps or equations, no signs or guideposts, nothing but our equally unfathomable instincts, intuitions, and reasoning abilities to tell us where we came from, why we are here, and what we are supposed to do. What we do possess - perhaps it is the key to our survival as a species - is an almost unquenchable need to know

The adapter is just a wire. One side has an s video port to go into the pc, the other is a slot to hook up a yellow video wire and then connect the other side to the pc.

It's always blurry, no way to get it fixed. Don't worry, you're fine now

Yeah it's always blurry, you can solve that by getting, you know, a Plasma HDTV

This may also be because you've chosen the wrong color system (eg PAL for an NTSC tv or the other way around).

. Getting a TV with S-video definitely helps (with component and HD being even sharper).
