Help! Nvidia 5200, SVideo and PAL

[blackpaw]

How do I get the damn thing to output the subject! I have the poxy NVidia Control Center which doesn't allow me to specify the outputs - only Autodetect, which insists I am using Composite/NTSC when its actually SVideo/PAL-BG (Australia).

Windows XP Pro P2, NVidia PCI 5200

what drivers are yo using the new ones suck on older cards

when on the selection of your tv make sure you select B/pal australia first
then does it give you the option in the box below of svideo etc

Latest from Nvidia - 163.75_forceware_winxp_32bit_international_whql.exe

I'm not even getting a selection for TV Signal type.

Are the old drivers available somewhere?

Blah - found the NVidia driver archive and installed the Feb-2006 drivers (vs 81). They have options for explicity setting the output and tv signal type settings. Have to wait for the TV to be free before I can test but seems ok.

Pisses me off when software is "improved" by removing choice.

Thanks for the help, never thought of older drivers.

im using 93.71 seems to be not to bad as far as options go
make sure you switch to clasic view or you cant see all the options on your SD tv
plus its easier to use more logical if you ask me

Thanks, I went back further than neccessary to ensure I got one that worked.
