any S-Video device, such as a VCR or TV. (The
S-Video standard provides for a higher quality
picture than NTSC or PAL.)
C A U T I O N
NTSC and S-Video TV outputs only
operate in 640 x 480 or 720 x 480
resolution mode. PAL TV outputs only
operate in 800 x 600 resolution mode.
TV modes are disabled until the resolution
is set properly. Access to resolution
settings is via the Windows 95 Control
Panel, Display, then Settings. If different
resolutions are set for the built-in
display and an external monitor the
resolution for both will be set to that
of the built-in display whenever your
notebook is restarted.
