So i have Vista 32 bit, 8800GTS and right now no HD tv. We have a regular tv with S-video. When we hook up the TV we get an image but its B/W. How do we get color? I have looked all over the internet and nvidia website and have not been able to find anything. Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks
 
look on the nvidia control panel under video and television. there is a setting for input near the bottom of one of the pages. if you cant get it to work on vista, you will have to fall back to composite. also, you might be able to get more help on the htpc forum here, or here

Most likely reason is that you have not selected svideo correctly from your TV. My old Panasonic 32" TV would also give B/W picture the first time I setted the thing up. Only after a while I realized that I had to select the svideo input twice, after that there was colour. Maybe it had something to do with RGB or something, sorry for the bad explanation, my english skill is at its limit :)
