I am getting a black and white picture on my TV when I am connecting it to my laptop through S-video. I used to get a colored picture using the same TV, wire, and laptop, however one day I just got this black and white picture. I have been searching for quite awhile but to no avail, please help me fix this. Thanks in advance.
Yes, I tried changing the cable, and the tv, its the same thing. Could it be the signal type, mine is set on M/NTSC, however, I don't know how to change it to PAL.
my suggestion as far as changing the signal is make sure you have your videocard drivers up to date. i have the same issue how ever mine are up to date and i have tried multiple signal outputs. because my videocard gives me settings for different countries. i have also read that it could do to the four pin svideo verses the 7 pin s video. anyone have any input on that issue?

Most 7-pin s-video plugs are just s-video with some extra stuff on the middle pins (usualy either composite, component, or sometimes both).
