Hey i have one of the first generations of the Black MacBook, of which has a mini dvi port. i recently purchased the Dynex mini dvi to video/ s-video chord in hopes of connecting my MB to a television. when i connect the adapter to my computer it refreshes the monitor but either shows no signal on the tv or flickers parts of my desktop on the tv. i've tried changing the resolution to as low as 800x600 60hz and many others and it just doesn't come through. i haven't been able to try the s-video yet, but can someone give me some insight on wtf is wrong?

thanks,
Jon
