Re: Satellite A200 - 1 M 4: output TV is black and white

Hi all

Thanks for the wonderful forum. I think this is the right place to ask.

I own a Toshiba Satellite A200 - 1 M 4 model, and the problem is with the TV available. When I connect the s-video cable to the TV, the TV shows a signal black and white instead of color. I've tried the settings PAL and NTSC on the TV but nothing worked.

Went to the market to look for if there is a fault of cable but changed 4 or 5 wires and the problem is the same.

I guess one of the store people said that there is a software to convert black and white to color.
I googled to find out more but ended up with nothing

Can anyone recommend what should I do to get the color of the TV option.

Thank you

I assume that your TV settings are wrong.
I have the same problem. I've connected the laptop to the TV of the parents and the captain was black and white. But the captain was fine on my TV.

I activated the option s-video on the other TV and I got the color ;)

I think you should check the settings too.

  • Satellite L10-192: Video Out (TV screen is black and white)

    Hello

    I recently bought a new notebook Satellite L10-192, and I have trouble with the video out of service.

    The image on the TV screen is black and white. I have read and followed the instructions of the manual (indicate the video mode PAL B, etc.), but it is always black and white.

    I have Win XP Pro without Service Pack.

    Anyone has any advice on this problem? Can I change the resolution or color depth or install Service Packs? Or a Toshiba from the factory CD utility?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    In my opinion, your settings on the laptop are right but please check your TV also. I put t know if your TV is a S-video port or you use a S-video adapter. Please check menu TV. Maybe it's for S-video option in the port.

    If the TV doesn't have a S-video port, you can connect your unit as follows:
    (1) SVID-adapter that brings back the color! It works with any device with an s-video signal through a plug 4-pin or 7-pin. http://www.s-vid.de/images/SVID.gif
    (2) SCART - / adapter S-video http://www.mediaatlantic.com/product.php/366/1142//8aa0b1bbaf6020c785221873b2a985bd

  • Output HDMI is black and white

    built myself a screamer, core i7 920, gigabyte x 58, 6 GB triple channel ocz ram and a powercolor 5770 (ati). got running, hooked through hdmi on my sony bravia 40 '' and everything was sweet. Once a week, the color disappeared. I get the color on the sony in the post OFFICE and the windows 7 (x 64), but as soon as windows loads: no color on the sony. If I switch to vga, I get the color. but it's a 30 feet, run to the sony and I am getting ghosts via vga. I checked and rechecked all the color settings and the resolution in windows and catalyst 10.2 control panels. I was about to rma video card, but the color at the start of the post OFFICE and windows reminds me that she won't do any good. I scoured google for answers, but still, I have not found the answer.

    help someone?

    solved!

    I never figure out where the parameters was turned off in the catalyst control center, but it was obviously... when I chose the option "Reset all values", the color is back!

    hope this helps anyone else who runs into this problem.

  • Satellite M30: black and white TV with S-video output

    I have a M30 bought in the United Kingdom currently I am in the United States
    When I try to connect my M30 to my TV via a RGB cable, it works very well but failed to get a similar result via S-video. The image is black and white and very fragile.

    Is it to do with the fact that the standards of television in the United Kingdom and the United States are different (PAL or NTSC) or is this something else?

    Can you recommend how can I change the output format of the S-video signal?

    Thanx

    MR. M.

    Hello

    The fact is that U.S. NTSC standard and it can be the reason for this, but if you use connection S-Video S-video port on the TV must be turned on. If not, the image can be produced in black and white.

  • Satellite C660 C660D - Webcam color or black and white?

    Hello

    I was just wondering if the web camera on the Satellite C660/C660D is color or black and white?
    If its color, how can I change the color?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Of course he came s color.
    It s a common webcam you have just black and white webcam photo?
    In your case I would recommend you the webcam software options.
    Start the camera Assistant software, and in properties, you can find the option called backlight Compensation. Check this option.
    Also in the Image tab, you will find some controls like: brightness, gamma, hue, saturation and sharpness. Play with these settings.

  • Satellite A60-302: black and white photo on TV

    I have connected my Satellite A60-302 to my TV using brand also SCART S-VIDEO AND TWIN PHONO LICENSE that I bought from maplins. Transfers of image and sound on TV when I press Fn + F5 buttons but the image is in black and white, the sound is ok.

    I tried the color on the tv settings but it makes no difference, any help would be appreciated

    Hello

    The color on the TV settings won't help. Check please the port on your TV settings. As far as I know by the use of the pot from S-video to TV, it must be enabled properly to get the color. I put t know exactly how it works with cable SCART, but check out several channels if you should enable the option of scanning on your TV.

    I also hope that you bought the product of high quality.

    Can you please tell what cable do you use? Maybe a 4-prong cable?
    I read on some sites that a cheap 4 pin cables could be a reason for a black and white TV. Try a 7 wire pins. Maybe it helps.

    But as a first step, you should also check the PAL/NTSC settings.
    You should also check this site on different connections

    PS: I n t think 60 Hz setting is responsible for the black and white problem.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 8: the monitor shuts off and cannot back up to Vista

    Hello

    I have the Satellite A200 - 1 M 8 with original Vista. Sometimes, I have some problems with the display (I have the latest drivers).
    The monitor turns off (not as usual but it is gray instead of black) applications flow normally (I hear the music of film, this) but I can't get back into windows.

    When I push button hibernation and I try to go back to windows, I see the blue screen then the computer resets.

    It happens very often and is really frustrating because my internet disconnects and downloads.

    I don't think that the temperature is too high because I think it's cool. How to fix this?
    Maybe some graphics settings or new BIOS?

    Please help me. I can't stand it!

  • Satellite A200 - with connected power supply screen goes black or partial

    I have a satellite A200 age of 5 years.

    The laptop works fine when using the power of the battery when the AC power cable is plugged into the computer freezes sometimes displaying a partial color screen or a black screen. I tried with my son AC cord (also Toshiba) and same problem appears.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, very frustrating.

    Regards Dave.

    It is not easy to help in issues that sometimes occur.
    Have you done something about this? Something like test with its own OS preinstalled?

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem. It can be caused by software, but also the material can be responsible for this.
    In my opinion, you should backup all your data and reinstall original Vista and test it with the factory settings.

    If the problem occurs again you must be a hardware problem.

  • Satellite A200-195: TOSHIBA Flash Cards 'black and white cards' does not

    I was wondering if someone can help me.

    Recently, I restarted my Satellite A200-195.

    I found that my flash cards for my function FN hotkey buttons disappeared and are not pop up on the top of the screen more.
    However, I am able to support the other function keys on the keyboard part F1 - F8, one that allows the mouse F9.

    I already uninstalled and installed the added value package, support Flash utility and even tried to update the Bios, but it seems that my Bio is already the latest version.
    After all, that I seem to be able to activate my mouse F9 key, but my other function keys don't work anymore and the flash cards still do not appear like they use to.
    Is this what can I do to get my flash card pop up on screen without having to bring my laptop back to factory default?

    Have you tried to restart Flash cards?
    Start > all programs > Toshiba > utilities > restart Flash cards.

    You can also try is to install the Flash cards support utility if you can find it on the download page of Toshiba.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 MB-Question on upgrade of RAM and installing XP

    Recently bought a PC laptop toshiba a200 - 1 MB.
    It came with a 1 GB of ram (512 + 512 DDR2, 667 Mhz).

    I want to move the ram to 2 GB, is it possible to add RAM by keeping the originals in place?

    In addition, I want to replace Vista with XP, it is possible to do. The product recovery cd came with preinstalled in vista. Can I install the drivers from the recovery cd and install xp separately.

    Thank you

    The two locations are already occupied.
    If you want to upgrade the RAM you have to remove a module.

    You can upgrade the RAM up to max 4 GB (2 x 2 GB)

    You can use the DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM

    > Also, I want to replace Vista with XP, it is possible to do. The product recovery cd came with preinstalled in vista. Can I install the drivers from the recovery cd and install xp separately.

    This is possible. You need to install the XP from your original CD of Microsoft. XP drivers can be found on the Toshiba page
