    well, the manual tells you what to do exactly.

    i'm sure that what you said is right. The black svideo cable hooks up to the video out (between the RF Input and the DVIoutput).


    for the input the purple thing plugs into the video input, then you plug the devices into that purple thing.

    is that an s-video plug on the other end of the purple cable?
    cant you just plug that into the s-video out and plug your tv to that?

    -edit- nvm, i need sleep :S

    I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
    I will work to elevate you just enough to bring you down.

    it's gotta be enabled to see anything.
    right click desktop>properties>settings and there should be 2 monitors, one greyed out. click it, then click "extend my windows desktop onto this monitor"

    remember that a monitor has a way greater resolution than a TV, you cant use your TV to do much beyond watchin movies, or maybe playin some games......

    The PC is sending the video signal to TV via Svideo cabel.
    So, you need to have the TV set up right,
    it has to listen the right channel, there might be one built in,
    or you can do search, check the TV manual for details.

    Also, the PC, has to be sending the signal.
    There's tons of options in ATI control panel.
    And, reading the manual should reveal the thruth about
    the matter.

    I cannot remember the details how it was done and I dont
    currently have TV or Ati screen card to play with.
