why is my radion 9800 using a composit cable turning my tv pic grey?

If your TV was purchased within the last 12 years, then the TV is not the problem. Your Radeon 9800 is definitely not the problem, as it is relatively high end graphics card and relatively modern. One thing you might want to do is update your Radeon 9800 drivers. Those can be found at www.ati.com. Also, if the drivers don't get rid of the black and white problem, then I highly suspect that the cable is the cause. Perhaps the root of your problem is you routing your cable through the composite scart adapter you got with your playstation. Try just getting a brand new cable that can connect directly from the Radeon 9800 to your TV without any extra adapters inbetween. More than likely that will work.

Try this: get a codec.\n\nAn example is the Divx codec.

I actually have the exact same tv tuner as you. When I first installed the software, the programs were jerky as well. What the problem actually is is that you need more RAM for your computer. RAM helps with loading and running multiple programs at the same time. The more RAM you have in your system, the smoother it will run. Just about every brand of computer has a customer support website that you can look up specifications of your particular make and model of your computer. Look up what type of RAM you need and buy that particular kind for your system and follow the instructions on how to install it into your computer. Your tv tuner, as well as your other programs will operate a lot smoother then. Good luck in getting it to work!

Most likely, it is showing up as a question mark somewhere in your device manager.  You probably need a driver for it.  If an installation CD came with your webcam, install whatever is on it, and try again.

Although I can't be sure, the fact that you said Yellow, Red and white leads me to believe that you have RCA/Composit out on your laptop.  Yellow = video, Red = left audio channel, and White = right audio channel (Or vise versa, I can't remember).  Take it to your local Radio Shack and ask the guy behind the counter what kind of cable you need, he'll know.

You probably have an old videocard that dosen't support dual displays. That means you have to turn off the computer, disconect the monitor, plug in the TV and turn it back on.

Composit is the raw signal (analogue) without sound and would use RCA jacks to connect.\n\nComponet would use DVI connection to separate out the signals.  \n\nNot that you needed that information but Nvidia video cards use DVI as well as other high-end cards.  Be care full to make sure your TV has the hookups for DVI connections.  You can not purchase a DVI to RCA cables unless you are willing to have them custom made for a very high price.  Double check your TV connections, just because it is HD does not mean it is new enough to support DVI hook ups.  Older HD's don't support them and if you have to use an adapter to use it, then it is worthless. If you use an adapter you lose everything you were trying to gain by using the DVI connection.  It is like getting a true digital signal then running a copper wire to connect it to your tv.  Pointless.  To get a true digital signal on your tv you must use optics.

The RGB is the Red,Green,Blue factor. Hrtz and refresh rate use to and still do have an effect on these signals, that is why they are Tested, usually at a session startup. Your TV does it also, you just never see it.

If you have the cable to connect them, just pay attention to what video input on the TV that you connected it to, (video 1, video 2, etc.) and make sure you change the video input on the TV itself.

If I remember correctly, those cables are hard to come by or don't exist at all(and even if they exist, I think they were pretty expensive).\n\nTry looking here:\n\n http://www.monoprice.com\n\nMight be easier to either use your s-video (assuming you have one) or finding a HDTV that supports VGA inputs.\n\nI guess you could also try using a little box to do it for ya.

The problem is that the two video signals are very different and not compatible.  You'll need something to make the conversion.  Usually, devices used to convert video signal types are called Scan Converters, so if you do a search on that you'll probably find lots of stuff.  I understand CompUSA has a pretty good selection of them. \n\nYou'll probably find VGA (which might also be called HD15, high density DB15, SVGA, or 15 pin RGB.  They all mean the same thing!) to component video easier to find than VGA to DVI.  However, check to see if the DVI port is "DVI-I" or "DVI-A".  The way you can tell is if there are four holes around the "bar" slot on the right hand side of the jack.  If you don't have those holes, you have a DVI-D which is digital only.  The problem here is VGA is analog only, so you'll need a device to convert analog to digital.\n\nIf you *do* have four holes around the bar on the right hand side, you can use a DVI to HD15 cable.  Remember, though, that this won't carry any audio!  You'll need to find another way to do that.\n\nI've attached links to pictures of DVI connectors and a link to a DVI to HD15 cable that my company carries.

add workaround for Hauppauge PVR150 hardware problem with tuner ... This syncs the tuners list with the list from ivtv

You aren't getting a signal input.  If all the wiring is done right then which video source are you trying to watch and is that powered on or supplying a signal?  If it is then try going straight from that to your TV.  If that works check the controls and wiring to your video source selector.  Make sure you have picked the right input for the selector as well and it matches up to the video input on your TV.  It's something very simple, it always is.

If it is an older monitor, your picture tube may have gone bad (if so, you might as well throw it away), if it is new, i would supect the cble connecting the monitor and the computer is dammaged, or the connector at the end. Other than that, unless you have electronics expirience, thier is probably nothing inside it that is broken, that you could fix.

Change the direction in which your monitor faces and see if there is any difference.\n Make sure you have not placed any speakers near your monitor as this may cause color patches on your screen. \n\nNext check to see if you have plugged in the signal cable connector properly and screwed it tight. A loose signal cable can cause color distortion.

What brand is your TV? Some brands require additional cables or USB ports. Have you read the user manual it came with, or talked to a Customer Service Represenitive?

i know this will be a pain, but try it on another computer. this way we can tell if it's the monitor or the video card. I have a feeling it's the monitor. While you have the cable disconnected, check the pins. It's real easy to bend one.
