ViVo-Connector on Leadtek WinFast A350 TDH Ultra MyViVo

Hi there!

I recently tried to use the video-out feature of the named card, but I
didn't get any available cable into the connector! First, I tried the
old SVideo -> Composite-adapter from my old GeForce3 Ti500 - no
success. So I tried the provided SVideo -> Composite-adapter provided
with the card (I guess it was) - no success. Finally, I tried the
provided original SVideo-cable that came with the card - but that
cable didn't fit either. So why the fu## does no cable fit into the
connector. I turned every cable 360 degress, but none of it fit. I
checked if perhaps something from the case is in the way and blocking
the connector, but is doesn't.

Has anyone succeeded in connecting a cable to the TV-connector of the
named card or perhaps a good idea how I get a cable connected?

Thanks for your help, Stefan

Hi......I have the 128MB version of your card and yes I have been using
the provided s-video cable provided by Leadtek with no problems.
It is a delicate connector though......all I can suggest is that you
make sure you have not bent any pins by turning it 360
degrees........then get in a position where you can look into the end of
the s-video cable and the card connector and line them up before trying
to plug it in.........it is a very tight fit and gently move the cable
from side to side if you need to but it should fit.
best of luck
