    K, here is my problem! I have a Panasonic 1080i HDTV which I'm trying
    to use as a monitor. I'm using a Geforce4 MX 420 with S-video out.
    When I am connected through the S-video, I get a picture in very poor
    quality with little color. However, when I switch the tv to Picture
    and picture mode and put the windows desktop as the secondary picture
    the color is fine and the picture looks gooduntil I swap back of
    course, then its the same problem all over again! Any help to get it
    working right would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

    you'll never get good results with s-video if you're aiming to use it as a
    monitor.
    you should be connecting via VGA or better still DVI/HDMI

    i had the wrong nvidia display driver
