Hey Guys,

I am having a little problem with a flat screen tv in my room. I ahve freeview on it and a seperate dvd player plugged in to it and when I watch either of these it is in colour, but when I connect my nintendo wii it shows the picture in black and white .

I have tried the wii downstairs and it works fine so it can't be the nintendo and if the DvD player and freeview work fine in colour I can't see it being the Tv.

If you have any ideas of how to sort this out could you please msg me.

Technika 26-207 is the make and model .

Cheers,
Sean

Have you disconnected the dvd and freeview and tried that.Try putting the Wii on a different AV connection.Lot of the TV's today have 3 or 4 scart connections.

Most makes of flat screens have a menu function for different inputs i.e. DTV/ TV/ PC, etc. Worth having a look to see if there a games format function or similar.
