Re: Component output not working?

I would not be surprised if your component out does not work with the
generic Vista Nvidia driver. Isn't that part of the Vivo package? I think
you might have to wait for a full featured Nvidia driver for that.
I used to have the HDTV option for my card under XP, but did not notice it
with the 88.61 driver.
