    Hi there!
    I'm trying to make TV out work but don't see any settings for it. Where are they? (like PAL, NTSC) Is it secondary adapter that I need to adjust?
    NVIDIA display shows LCD display only :(
    Any ideas?

    Thank you!!!
    Denys.

    Do you have the cable hooked up and a tv attached by chance? You should be able to adjust it as a second monitor under settings.

    Thanks,

    I was able to make the TV out work on both TVs that I tried.

    Two things to try:

    1. Control Panel -> Display Properties -> Settings -> Display -> (Multiple Monitors) on NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600.

    2. In the BIOS enable "LCD & CRT NTSC".

    That should be enabled from the get go.... but I guess it's always good to check anyway.

    Thank you,
    Yes, I hooked TV through s-video->composite. But there seems to be no settings for TV out. I tried NVTweak to force TV output. Settings are now there, but TV is still blank.
    I'll try enabling it from BIOS.

    Is the tv showing up in the options as connected?

    Those are the lcd/crt option on... it's usually fn + f8 on most keyboards.

    You have to enable the tv-out broadcast by clicking the Fn + f8 key. I dont have this one infront of me but its one of the f keys i believe. Thats actually to enable vga out. Try that. If its not it there has to be a setting in nView.

    That would have been my next guess... I don't know what I didn't think of it before. I've had more problems with s-video cables than anything else.......

    Glad it's taken care of.

    Thanks,

    Thank you, everyone!
    The problem was in the cable. I used a different cable and it didn't work. Now everything works fine.
