Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed.

If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Connecting laptop to TV please help Hi, I really hope someone can help me it's midnight here and i'm starting to feel desperate! I've been searching the forums for weeks now and while i've found loads of information without posting myself, i'm going crazy with this one issue. I've downloaded films and tv shows, which is great and i'm very happy. But i would really like to watch them on my tv. So i went out and bought the scart to go from laptop to tv and all that works fine... EXCEPT.... Everything is in black and white, not just the film also the desktop. I've searched and searched the web looking for answers and this is my last hope. I downloaded nvidia, saw that on some sites but i don't even know what it does. Arrghh Please help! Tried forgeting that idea and decided to try burning- another 48 hours of problems. Please help.  |

| I'm not sure about connecting directly from a card (I use a 3rd party device.) But if it's in black & white it sounds to me like the format is wrong; ie: ntsc instead of pal or vice versa. But I could be wrong. What do you mean you downlded nvidia. Do you mean an update to your drivers? You would only upgrade your drivers if you have an nvidia graphics card. So what type of graphics card do you have & how are ou trying to connect to the tv? |

| Right Thank you for replying so fast. I have tried changing to Pal and vice versa- still black & white screen. I don't really know what i was trying to do with Nvidia i didn't have it to start with i'd just seen it on some site and thought it might work- yes i am stupid. so lets forget about that I don't know if it has some thing to do with the connection, but i don't think it is. I have the s video to scart and scart in the TV. I've also tried changing tv. Thanks oh i don't know what graphics card i have, i'm on windows xp, do you know how i could find out? |

| Thanks I've just been to that site, and it answers a lot of questions. I get the impression it's nothing to do with my graphics card and i need to buy a new three way scart etc. Which is crazy, because i bought one the other day, got home realised i had an old one for my portable dvd player, so i took it back to the shop. Really don't want to spend £30 on a new one. Oh well, i'l get it and if that works i'll get back to you. Going to bed now. |

| My old Sony TV & VCR used scart but I replaced them a few months ago. Sony no longer uses scart on their tv's or vcr's (though my dvd player has that option.) Since scart is very much a European concept. Scart adaptors are available (certainly here) or you can have an electronic shop wire one up for you. I'm just wondering whether you're going about it the right way to connect b/w your comp & tv. I found something re: scart & b/w signal: http://search.ati.com/nasearch.asp?Q...otal=&Stat=New or the answer directly is here: http://www.ati.com/support/infobase/4614.html It is your s-video to scart using 3rd party scart cable! |

| That's it! I'd just found that too, just goes to show the mind is slower at night. I completely missed that. Yeh I was plugging the s video straight into the scart. so i'm gonna buy an s video do 3 rca today. I'll tell you if it works. Thank you, you really are good at this! |
