    WinXP Pro SP2, nVidia FX5700 256mb AGP, 1gb DDR: OK- my TV has an SVid plug, my video card has an SVid plug, so, how the hell do I send the pic from the PC to the TV?? I ran the cable, and flipped the switch on the TV to turn on SVideo (it has 2 settings: SVid ON, SVid OFF), and it just displayed the regular channel w/o any change. What do I have to do?

    in short, you have to tell the video card drivers to send the video signal to the TV. If you have newer drivers, they make it pretty easy to do so. Open up your nVidia control panel and choose the Display category
