Clone screen on TV is B&W
Hi, having just set up my new pc which has a gforce FX5200 graphics card in it, i plugged it into my TFT monitor as normal, now i wanted to use the TV-out with my av cable to reach across the room so i could watch avi's etc on there from the comfort of the settee, now i managed this before on my old pc which was a gforce mx440 but i have no idea how to manage it on this card.
No matter what i seem to select when the AV lead is plugged into the graphics card seems to make any picture on the TV at all, only when i used my s-video adaptor to plug the AV lead into the s-video slot on the graphics card did i actually manage to clone the picture on both the monitor and the TV which is what i was after in the first place, thing is, pic is in Black & White instead of colour.
The TV is PAL but i can't find any option on the menu's to change it, any ideas??

If the card utiliy doesn't have a setting for PAL see if it will let you set your refresh rate to 50 hertz which is the normal rate for PAL.

I have also seen this happen if the computer is on 32 bit color and changing it to 16bit color can help too. I had this on my GeForce 2 card.
