Ok I just bought a x800xl ati graphics card and I cant get it to display my desktop through s-video to the tv. It came with one of those s-video adapters because the original connectors only support dvi. So my question is how do you get this to work ive hooked up my comp to my tv before so I know how to do the basics but for some reason this graphics card is being a pita so can someone help me out.

bienian, if you goto display properties, and click the advanced button: you should be able to select which display the card outputs to.

When evolution selects its agents, it does so at a cost, makes demands in exchange for singularity, and you may be asked to do something against your very nature. This force, evolution, is not sentimental. Like the Earth itself, it knows only the hard facts of life's struggle with death. All you can do is hope and trust that when you have served its needs faithfully, there may still remain some glimmer of the life you once knew.
