Windows 7 S-Video not working

[George Semaan]

Hello,

I have an i7 with windows 7 installed and GeForce 9800 GT.
I used to connect my pc to the TV via s-video and it usually worked until 2 weeks ago, it just stopped.
So I thought the problem must be with the cable, so I replaced but it's not working.

I even updated nvidia's driver, didn't work.

I have attached a screenshot of the nvidia control panel. I have tried all possible settings and even though it is detecting the "TV", it's still not working.

Any advise please?

It seems like you're facing issues with connecting your Windows 7 PC with an i7 processor and a GeForce 9800 GT graphics card to your TV using the s-video connection. Despite replacing the cable and updating the NVIDIA driver, the connection is still not working as expected. To troubleshoot this issue, here are some steps you can try: 1. Check Cable and Connections: - Ensure that the cable is connected properly to both your PC and the TV. - Try using a different cable or port on your TV if possible. 2. TV Input Source: - Make sure that the TV is set to the correct input source to receive the signal from your PC. 3. NVIDIA Control Panel Settings: - In the NVIDIA Control Panel, check the following settings: - Set up your multiple displays if needed. - Verify that the TV display is detected and enabled. - Check the resolution and refresh rate settings for the TV display. 4. Driver Reinstallation: - Try uninstalling the NVIDIA driver completely and then reinstall it. This can sometimes resolve driver-related issues. 5. Windows Display Settings: - Go to the Windows Display settings to ensure that the TV display is recognized and configured correctly. 6. Multiple Display Modes: - Test different display modes such as "Duplicate," "Extend," or "Second screen only" to see if the TV output works in any of these modes. 7. Test with Another Device: - If possible, test the TV connection with another device to verify if the issue is with the PC or the TV itself. If none of these steps resolve the issue, there might be a hardware problem with either the graphics card or the TV input. Consider seeking further assistance from a technician or the manufacturer of either the PC or the TV. If you could provide the screenshot of the NVIDIA Control Panel settings you mentioned you attached, I can take a look and provide more specific guidance based on that information.
