Basic Troubleshooting Tips

exists, try a different PCI expansion slot.
• Ensure the monitor cable is securely fastened to the card.
• Make sure that the monitor and computer are plugged in and receiving power.
• Disable any built-in graphics capabilities on your mainboard. For more
information, see your computer documentation.
• Make sure that you selected the appropriate monitor when you install your VGA
enhanced driver.
• Because a typical computer system consists of many different parts, difficulties
may arise from a combination of items. Check the following list and find a
symptom that's similar, then try the suggested solution.
Video is unstable
• Check that you're using the correct broadcast standard format (NTSC, PAL, or
SECAM).
• Check the quality of your incoming TV signal on another receiver; bad reception
may be the cause.

• Check the connectors setting to make sure you've selected the correct input
(CATV, Composite, or S-Video) for your video source device.
No video or audio
• Check that the audio and video connectors are securely plugged into the correct
jacks.
• Check that the Tekram Video Player card is securely seated in its slot.
• Check that the VGA enhanced driver is installed.
• Check the audio cables to make sure all connectors are securely plugged into the
correct jacks.
