TV Connection Problem with Laptop.

Jan 9, 2005 1:41PM PST

Hello,
I need to connect my Laptop to TV through S-video out but can not see anything on TV.
First I made connection from s-video out from computer to tv through audio video in 3 (yellow/black/white) cables. Than I turn on computer. Than opened Display click settings-advanced-monitor and selected mirror image. This time original monitor gone black. So I had to call local techinician. He brought extra computer monitor and fix the problem for me but now I can not see the selection of mirror/dual monitor in the Display advance settings.
So please help me how to connect TV to my Laptop to watch DVD on TV.
My tv input is selectable for PAL or NTSC.
Thank You Very Much.
Anil Patel.
