    You have to actually set the system to output an image thru the s-video port in the first place. Connect your tv using the s-video cable. Look on your keyboard and you will see a blue decal with an "LCD" icon somewhere on the number keys. Hold fn and then press that button to turn on the s-video port on your notebook.

    On my desktop I have a 9800 pro and if I connect my computer to my tv I have to: Right click on the desktop -> properties -> settings tab -> advanced -> displays tab -> then I can turn on which ever displays i want. IDK if it's the same for all radeon video cards.
