Ok, I recently purchased this card. My old card was a GeForce 4 MX440 64MB AGP Card which I never had a problem with. I had my monitor and TV connected without a problem either, which the card was always able to display color on the TV. Now the ATi card doesn't display color, its just all black and white. I left the settings under standard and toggeled them around to see if I can get color, but to no avial. Also, updated driver from ATi site, but nothing.

All hardware as in cable and tv are all the same used with the MX440... anyone had this experience plz do help me thanks

Usually its because of a bad cable or bad s-video to composite adaptor. It sounds like the Chroma information is just lost.

So, I'm guessing no one knows how to get color from the TV using this card huh?

If you're sure the cable is good (I assume you're using S-Video), the issue is probably the card. Like the first reply said, it's probably not transmitting the chroma signal, just brightness.
