Question:

VGA to RCA connector giving display problems?

Am located in India. I have a dell inspiron laptop and an old AIWA tv. I got a VGA to RCA connector which outputs through 3 pins ( red, gree, blue ).My laptop's VGA output port is of 15 pins( 5 pins 3 rows ), commonly known as - DE15F.Once I log into Windows vista in my laptop, i connect the cable to my TV, which has 3 inputs ( red, yellow and white ). I put the red pin in the red input and gree/blue pin to the yellow input and blue/green to the white input. The moment I do this, the display resolution in my laptop switches from 1024x768 to 800x600 automatically and I get a very hazy, happ-hazzered black and white display in my TV. Is this a problem because am using an obsolete TV ? Do I need to do something in my laptop to get this fixed ?

Answer:

it sounds more like an issue with the cable, when i used S-video to RCA it was black and white due to a problem with the cable
