No 3d or No Colour in TV

I was using the latest NVidia Drivers and tried to connect my TV to my video card, and found that it would only put out black and white display. I did research and found that you can change it to composite video to fix the problem, or install old drivers, and since I didn’t have the option for the composite video, I installed my old drivers for the video card. Everything was now working fine, except for when I tried to run NFS undergound 2, NFS undergound, or The Sims 2, nothing would render properly, (would just be flashing colours where anything 3-dimensional was supposed to be) But, THUG 2 worked fine, (although it wipes out the nvidia color correction settings).. So my question is: How can I display colour through the TV out with the new drivers without having to buy a new cable (for the signal combining)

OR

How can I fix the problem I am having with these certain games and the color correction with the old drivers?

Thank you so much in advance!!

I used to have a MX 440 and every time i reinstalled my OS i had to find the setting to change the output from s-video to composite, it is there but is very hard to find :cool:

nah the option isn’t there, I found it, but it shows Video Output Format, and no box under it to select composite and s-video
