TvOut problems on a radeon 9600
This is a discussion about TvOut problems on a radeon 9600 in the Windows Hardware category; I have a GigaCube radeon 9600 with 128MB ram. When I first tried the tvout it was working with no problems. But now it started to suck. It won't detect my TV that is connected to the tvout. If I short circuit the tvout I can enable tvout and when I plug in the TV everything works ok.

If I short circuit the tvout I can enable tvout and when I plug in the TV everything works ok. The picture on the TV is what it's suppose to be. When I plug the 4 pin tvout connector it detects the tv but the screen is b&w (probably cos it detects ntsc but it should be pal)
Even if I boot the computer with tv only (no monitor) it doesn't boot to the tv but to the monitor except for the 4 pin connector.
I guess it's a hardware problem. I'm going to try different cables and a different TV but since it works ok it just doesn't detect right is there any other tweak (beside short circuiting wich I find a little dangerous) to fool the ati drivers?
Any other ideas what could be worng? ;(
Please help!!!

TV out ont he ati cards works right from the pc bios without any driver at all, so try with the card plugged ONLY into the tv(disconnect the monitor)
See if the bios shows and if the pc boots.

No it doesn't. It boots to the monitor even if there is no monitor plugged in.
I've tried different tv's, different cables. No idea what else to try...
