PAL TV Out not available
I can not set PAL TV Output - Forced to used NTSC.
I have two different systems (completely different hardware - loacted in different countries) and have exactly the same problem - in both cases it works under Vista - so probably not a hardware problem.
I am trying to set up dual monitor systems (LCD monitor & SD PAL TV).
The TV is connected to an NVidia card (8600GT or 7300GS) via S video.
In device manager, the monitor shows as Generic nonPNP Monitor.
In available refresh rates i get 29 and 30 Hertz as being available - not the 25 Hertz needed for PAL.
If i go into advanced settings, I get lots of different resoultions, but only at 29 or 30 Hertz.
I then downloaded the (181.xx) driver from windows update. When I go into the Nvidia control panel and go to change TV format, it shows PAL settings as being available, but when I click Apply or OK, it reverts back to NTSC.
It is the same with the 185.xx driver downloaded from NVidia.
Is anyone else having this problem?
Any ideas how to fix?
Thanks in advance for your help
