acamlad · 11-11-2005, 12:58 AM

hey guys i dont know if im in the right place ( sorry if im not )

i got a fx 5600 , everything is fine execpt the TV out ,

it just wont work , i never had a card with a S-Video with 7 pins i think , they all used to use 4 pin plug's anyway ive tried ......

New drivers ( older and newset ) Detonators also ,

trying card in diffent machine ,

Tested S-video lead on DVD player ( works fine on TV ),

doing all the " if your tv is connected and not being picked up ", setup's ,

i was told b4 that tv only works on 4pins plug's , now i got this card and it has a 7pin socket im abit confussed but i assume it will work due it being on the card .....

i think ive tried everything and nuffin comes out the TV not even a flicker .

any surgestions or help would be Very greatfull ,

Thnx

Ps, by saying 7 pin i think its 7 , could be rong could be 6 , could be 8 ( alot more than 4 anyway )

cause its not S-Video its VIVO, you need an adapter.... the point of VIVO is so you can have signals in, then out via splitting.... look on Newegg, they should have either a VIVO to S-Video Adapter, or the actual peice for the I/O

yeah but he said "TV-Out" now TV-in...So a card w/o VIVO should be able to display a monitor on TV. Have you gone into display properties, settings, advanced, and switching the little drawdown menue to TV?
