Hello folks,

I'm trying to connect my TV to my 9860S and having no luck.
I have the svideo cable pluged into the computer and into the TV but nothing happening. Is there something I missed?

As long as you are using the svideo connection on the side of the laptop I can't see what the problem would be. If you have the Nvidia card it should work using the "Dual" setting.

I made a boo boo

I was trying to connect my tv to the lappy with svideo port in the rear, and it was not working. after calling the Sager support line and talking with the tech. he said to use the svideo (in) which is on the left side very last port of the laptop not the one in the rear which is the (out) for svideo. Then after I hooked it up; the nVidia software gave me options to use other cables. So now it is working fine. The manual is miss leading or I just didn't read it wright.

Thanks for the help guys

Didn't realize there was there was two ports for svideo
