    For some reason, my s-video output on my DV6000 has stopped working. It was working fine until just now. I thought it might be the cable, or the TV. I tried another s-video cable, and it still wouldn't allow me to connect... by 'connect' I am referring to right clicking on the desktop in winXP and going to "graphic properties" and selecting "television". This option is currently unavailable... after using 2 cables, and checking their connections I think the problem is either w/my computer, or the TV itself... yet, the TV has been working fine, and the cable is never unplugged... does anyone have a solution for this? Thank you.
