Starting Windows® with TV Display Enabled

The TV screen may become scrambled during the initial Windows® logo display. This is only a temporary effect and your screen will be restored within a few seconds.

During start up, your RADEON™ 9000 PRO will go through a sequence of mode settings, during which your TV display will remain blank. This process takes only a few seconds and helps program the TV display.

The above illustration shows how to connect your PC to a European TV using the SCART.

The SCART connector supports only the Composite video format, which means you will have to use an S-Video-to-Composite video adapter cable if your RADEON™ 9000 PRO supports the S-Video connector.

If your European TV has S-Video In, you can use an S-Video cable (available in most consumer electronic stores) rather than the SCART connector if your RADEON™ 9000 PRO supports the S-Video connector.

The RADEON™ 9000 PRO with the Composite out connector DOES NOT support connection to TVs with S-Video In.
