Troubleshooting
This chapter includes troubleshooting help for solving common problems.
Problem: Bad colors in the TV window
If your VGA display is running in 256 color mode, the TV picture will be dis-
played with only 256 colors. This compares with the 16 million different colors
which are in the original TV image. The colors in the TV window will change

adapter.
