    Hi,

    I´m portuguese and I have a notebook equipped with a Nvidia Geforce4 440 Go 64mb. The problem is that I can't connect the Tv-out(S-video) on the tv. I think I might have the wrong drivers because in Nvidia site they say they don't have drivers to this graphic card. And they say also to talk with notebook's manufacturer to get the drivers...The thing is I've sent them a mail and they didn't answer!

    Does anyone have the correct driver to this Graphic card?

    I must say also that if I uninstal the drivers I have, the connection is established but in black and white.

    Thanks anyone

    Hi,
    The first thing you should do is go to the web site for the manufacturer of your notebook. Eg go to Acer.com if its an acer. They should have a Download/drivers section where you can get the latest graphics drivers for your notebook. As you can get some sort of out put without the drivers then I suspect your problem is software not hardware. The new drivers should fix your problem. Its been awhile since I had a nvidia card, but at least with ATI you need to go into the display properties. Advance settings, then enable TV out-put to get it to display to a TV.
    I hope this helps a bit]
    Good luck
