I'm experiencing an issue with my video card. I recently upgraded my gig machine to Vista Ultimate from a perfectly working XP-Pro SP2, however when I connect my s-video from the Vista environment, the s-video output constantly flickers. I went to the official Nvidia website and downloaded a Vista driver which came out for a specific batch of cards http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x86_96.85_2.html , installed it and the problem still persists.
I did my own lily investigation by comparing both environments and the only difference is the refresh rate. In Vista it is extremely low which also doesnt give me the user an option to increment it. Is there some method of increasing the present refresh rate so as to stop the flickering on the s-video ???
My specs are:
1.86 Core 2 Duo
2GB DDR2 Ram
1TB HDD
512MB PCi-E video card
Intel M/board

First check if you are using the correct format. PAL or NTSC. You can get flickering like this if you are trying to put PAL to an NTSC device or vice-versa. Secondly, there is a setting in the advanced section of the nvidia control panel (not the windows one). Im not familliar with the 6600 series but I have a 7950 on my lappie and it's there.
Also make sure you have the latest drivers from nvidia and not your laptop manufacturer. Download the forceware drivers from nvidia and install those, it could be you have the cheapo drivers from wherever your laptop is from which dont have the nvidia control panel.
Anyhow, refresh rate should not be the problem. Video signal through s-video can only be 50hz or 60hz, no more unless you go into HDTV, which s-video cannot handle because of the way the signal modulation is done (not enough wires basically).
