Gforce 7100 128mb PCI-E, TV BLACK & WHITE

[Troz]

I just recently upgrade my system 1 being this GPU and now i cant see any colours just black and white the only way to see colours is to remove the drivers and let windows handle the graphics (which is really *** slow) now i know that the NVIDIA drivers are the problem, but is there some sort of patch to remedy this problem as i would like to remain on the latest drivers AND STILL WATCH COLOUR TV...

Ive read a couple of forums out there and they all seem to say the same thing but none of there solutions work, also i dont have the composite settings any where in my control panel for nvidia settings.

Currently i have a S-Video to RCA connector and that worked great on my Gforce4 TI 4200 using Nvidia 51.33

WHAT TO DO PLEASE HELP>...

Hi there Troz.

Read this article, do what it says:

http://www.pcanswers.co.uk/tips/def...id=16279&subsectionid=609&subsubsectionid=387

This could also help:

ok, i found it.
right-click the nvidia icon, select TV OUTPUT and then slide saturation to the middle.
does that work?

also, see this other guy's answer:
For some reason, a certain setting changes when you install the most recent update of Nvidia drivers. Mine happend to be version "66.93_win2kxp_english.exe". First, open your Display Properties and click on the [Settings] tab. Click the [Advanced] button. Click on the [GeForce (etc.)] tab. Select from the side menu [nView Display Settings]. Right click the display that should be your TV (normaly either "2" or "1b" ). Highlight [Select TV Format]. Click [Advanced...] at the bottom of the menu. Change "Video output format:" from [Auto-select] to the apropriate connector. Click [Device Adjustments]. Move the "Saturation" slider or just click [Restore Defaults]. Hopfully this should solve the problem

Check that your S-video connector pins are not bent as that might be the cause of the problem

opps. I didn't read the whole post, just the bottom, just play around with the colour settings or try changing the profile.

mh348 > the pins are a-okay nothing wrong there and all lines to and from the
PC are also fine, no breaks, kinks, bends, tears nada zip zilch...

teraside > The pins on either side have no dings dents kinks of anykind and
they are all of the same height and width...

Just some more info, the Gforce 7100 has a normal CRT-out and DVI-out also the problematic S-video out.
Now i take a S-video cable 'to' RCA then run that lead all the way to the TV to its counter part RCA connector.

This cable worked great when i still have my Gforce4 TI4200 so its not the cable.

Mabey i can port the tvdriver from the 51.33 nvidia drivers and attach then to the new Nvidia drivers, would that work...
