    Recently installed an Asus 9180 Magic card into my A7N266 VMSE, which I'll be using as a media box.

    Anyhoo, I installed the drivers normally, gave it a test with a dvd. Worked nicely on the big telly downstairs (Panasonic something or other). I decided to tidy up the mess I'd made, and unplugged everything, cleaned up the cables a bit, ane when I plugged back in - all video colour was inverted. DivX, dvd, xvid. Looked like photograph negatives.

    Apart from that.. works perfectly.

    Can anyone help me find out the problem, please? Might be the S-Video cable connecting graphics card to tv? Although the desktop and everything else is fine. Just the video
    Thanks

    If all you did was unpulg the cables and replug them your problem suggests a loose connection some where along the line. Try unplugging and replugging everything again.

    If that doesnt clear it up however you may have a problem with your video codecs, try uninstalling and reinstalling whichever codec you are using to run Divx.

    And if that still fails, reinstall your video drivers making sure to completely remove them and any remanents of prior drivers first.
