Help with S-video @ ATI

by blitzz • 25 Aug 2008, 16:02 • Journals
Hi, i got HD3650 XT, and i want to connect it to the TV with a S-Video cabel.
with my 8500GT, i just plugged it in and then i got the option in the nvidia driver.

i cant find that option/ way to active it on my ATI driver..

any suggestion?

haven't tried using it for ages but last time I did it was by sticking cable in both ends, catalyst control center then picked up the display under "disabled" which had a TV icon shown, I then right clicked and 'attached' as a second display

make sure cable is seated properly on both ends and then restart both tv and pc, TV after the pc is up and running.

card should detect it, could be a dodgy cable

Right click the TV icon and do what Fusen said. If you have the TV icon there it means the your pc detected it.

as loctar said, right click the TV icon and attach it as a secondary desktop
