-   I also have the same b&w problem on my desktop. My resolution is set @ 800 x 600 @ 60hz (only option). I have a 7300 GT graphics card and windows xp. It used to work perfectly, but had to format my pc and now just b&w. I've even looked in my bios but can't find anything. It is a PAL tv.-   Guest

never tried an adapter before .
likely the color signal is just too low or missing in the adapter mixer circuit.
just be certain that you have the display set for 60hz refresh rate in you display properties/adapter
