My desktop will not recognize my tv as an external monitor through my s video cord.
I have been researching this problem on line for some time and all the answers i have found have not worked. I have restarted my computer to try to get it to recognize. Gone through the control panel but there is no option for even activating a second
monitor and all other suggestions I have come across have so far not worked to get my computer to recognize my tv. I know my tv is compatible and can be used as an external monitor because I have used it in the past with my laptop and my old desktop. I am
running on windows vista. Please help!
