ATI VIVO problem

I have an ATI Radeon x850 xt (as agp) with VIVO. Before, I had a
9600XT, and had a Video out (7 pins w/ that bar on the bottom). I
connected that 9600XT to my TV and worked perfectly, color and
everything. When I got the x850, I tried to connect the VIVO to my TV,
to my suprise that the previous 7 pins became 9 (2 top, 4 middle, 3
bottom). Good thing the card came with an adapter that connected to it,
but it has 4 connectors that I have never messed w/ before: 2 composite
(yellow), each with an arrow either pointing into or away from the
connector, and 2 s-video with the same arrows. I connected my 6 foot
s-video cable (once connected to the 9600XT adapter) to the 'out'
s-video connector on the x850. The problem is it does not work anymore
because my TV shows black and white. I've checked all of the possible
options in Catalyst 6.6. I used both clone and extend desktop options,
and still does not work.
How can I fix this problem?
 
Your the second person to tell me about this jumper. I tried to find
this after ATI technical support told me about it. I tried to look for
this switch or jumper, but I couldn't find it. I did find switch box
w/ two switches. I don't want to touch it until i know what it does. I
found it behind the card, near the agp slot. Where is this switch
specifically?
