Answer 1

i know exactly your problem

I am guessing you have an Nvidia card

Rmouse click desktop->properties->settings->advanced

then select the tab of your gfx card

the Nvidia stuff will pop up, you need to select 'full screen video' and then select your TV.

Lucky for u, took me days to figure this one out.

good luck

I can only make an assumption here, so sorry if it's wrong,.... S-Video cable is probably what you need. It transfers all sound and video in one cable. Google it if you're unsure. Hope this helps. :)
