    I am on Compaq presario 6409TU with Xp pack2
    Accelarator in use 945GM ExpressChipset family

    The are 2 problems.
    1>Game not working
    i installed unreal tournament 2000 .. Theres a video intro wen the game begins.
    The problem i face is here:
    The video jus advances very fast ahead of sound
    ie if total intro is 1min-- the complete video finishes in 30 sec ..
    to put in words -- the video isnt a smooth flow .. but video advacnes in quick steps.
    again this also affects the game .. In the game wen i move character [ie up arrow].. instead of advancing 2 steps (say) it steps more

    2>The laptop comes with s-video out.
    when i connect my television. i hear the sound of hardware detected[windows os detects it].when i click on graphic properties- ican see my TV listed and protocol is supported... but sometimes here at this point i hear a sound again .. somehow the TV display gets uninstalled and gets installed/uninstalled randomly.

    if the tv does get the picture[ with repetitive effort ] -- i can see video clearly wen my laptop is on a battery ... wen i put main supply ON .. i see flickers on TV ...

    Please help ... any any any any kind of help appreciated.or so
    Thanks in advance
