I connected my s-video to my laptop thru my tv and press fn F5 but the tv screen is black and white,?

s-video tv balck and white

Answers:
If, by black and white, you mean that there is a picture, then you probably need to update to the latest video drivers.

Or if by black and white you mean there is no signal, then you should go to the graphics control panel, and try (if it is an nvidia card) to run the TV setup, and tweak the settings.

Also, if you are running vista, this can have a detrimental effect, as the vista video drivers still have many problems with TV output, etc.
Hope this helps,

Probably because your laptop isn't equipped with a TV tuner; different frequencies produce incompatibilities.
