I'm having trouble linking my laptop to my TV using the tv-out. I'm running an old Dell inspiron 5150 w/ go5200. I have updated the drivers and the computer will recognize the TV, but I can't get a good signal. For a while I was able to get diagnal waves of rainbow colors, but usually all I get is a black screen (TV set to appropriate input).
The only thing i can think of is that I'm connecting using a 4pin S-video to RCA female and then an RCA cable to connect to the TV. Does anyone know if it matters if you use a 4 or 7 pin S-Video? I can't seem to find a good answer with Google. Same with solving my connection problems.
