Anyway I wanna start using the TV-out feature on my Graphics card, but the manual doesn't exactly give me any information on how to use it or if I need some additional equipment.

The card states it had TV-Out/DVI feature, and I think it has HDTV output. Here a picture of the only cable that came with it, Anyone know what the Red, Green and Blue cables are for? Possibly HDTV? Also, if it is can I use that on any TV or just HDTV ones?

Thanks for any info.

Most European TVs don't have S-Video as they use the far superior Euro-AV (supports everything including component AV, IIRC). You can get an S-Video to Scart adaptor from any local electronics shop
Obviously not knowing where you are from as you haven't correctly filled out location, I don't know if that's what the problem is

Well I had loads of problems with S-Video output on UK TVs, but I thought that was just my old geForce 3. I used the S-Vid to composite adaptor I got with it as a result and was stuck with the lower quality.
That suggests to me that graphics card manufacturers dont' realise thier cards don't work at full Q on UK TVs
