    Usually you have to turn on the S-Video when you hook something up to it.
    Most laptops I've seen use a keystroke such as Fn-F6 to do this. If your Fn
    key is purple then you should see a little purple tv icon on one of your
    keys (it's F6 on mine).

    Another possibility might be to go to Control Panel -> Display and check on
    the Settings tab. You might be able to enable it through there.
