  • Problem with G550 TV-Out [PAL]

    I was using the G450 before for TV-Out and it worked superb.
    Now I bougth the G550. I installed the card with the newest drivers, I made an updated to cards bios to the newest version. But I'm not able to get any output to my TV. Neither over DualHead Clone or Zoom or DVDMax!
    I'm using the same wires as I was using for my G450 TV-Out setting. So I don't think that the Problem is there!

    The adapter cable for the G550 is different from the G400/G450 cable set.

        G550 uses the same cable as G450.
        It's the G400 that's different.
        You should be fine with the G450 cable.

        Which port are you connecting the TV to?
        When using a TV, the monitor needs to be on the DVI port with the DVI>VGA adapter, and the TV on the VGA port...
        Core2 Duo E7500 2.93, Asus P5Q Pro Turbo, 4gig 1066 DDR2, 1gig Asus ENGTS250, SB X-Fi Gamer ,WD Caviar Black 1tb, Plextor PX-880SA, Dual Samsung 2494s

          Yes, I have the TV at the VGA Port and the TV Cable is connected to the DVI>VGA adapter on the DVI Port. That's not the problem. It has to be something else. I tried almost everything which came up to my mind, but nothing helped!

          Hope someone can help me out with this. Or should I downgrade my G550 to the G450. This one worked fine?

          greets

          PS.: To all of you posting here!!!

          HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
