Changing the Color Television Format
Color television formats are modes by which television video
signals are sent and received. To send signals between the
notebook and a television, both the notebook and the television
must be using the same color television format.
Different regions and countries use different formats.
Region-specific formats are set at the factory for most notebooks
and are controlled by the location setting of the operating system.
To change the location setting and, with it, the color television
format:
1. Select
Start > Control Panel > Date, Time, Language, and
Regional Options > Regional and Language Options >
Regional Options
tab.
2. In the
Location
pane at the bottom of the
Regional Options
tab, select a region from the drop-down list.
3. Select
OK.
4. Restart your notebook.
