Need help setting up a PS2 to an LCD TV

helloimcdog · #1 10-08-2007, 04:37 PM

I just bought an LCD 20" flat screen for my dorm room and am encountering difficulty setting my PS2 up properly. I can get video and sound fine, but I do not have any color on games, the set up screen, or DVD's.

Does anybody know if there is another cable I need to buy in order to get color out of my LCD TV. My PS2 works fine on my old school tv setup. Right now I have the the red, yellow, and white cables all hooked up in their appropriate slots and I have tinkered with them in just about every way possible and I still don't have color.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Have you tried plugging it into a computer?

I've found that the cable on the back of the PS2 gets loose very easily--if you move the unit even slightly, you can loosen the cable to the point where it is still transmitting video, but not color.

Doesn't really make sense if it's working on another TV. Plug something else into your TV and plug your PS2 into another TV. If the other TV is B/W it's the PS2, if not and something else plugged into your LCD is also B/W return the LCD.
