Default Tv Tuner, S-video and Playstation.

Dont know if anyone knows much about this type of thing but might as well try. I got a Compro Videomate TV Tuner and I just got a S-Video Playstation cable so I could play PS2 (when i get it) on my com anyway I plugged it in to my old playstation 1 just to test it out, the problem is that it flickers alot, which the below pic kinda shows



I thought it might have something to do witht he refresh rate of my monitor but I dont really know enough about that type of thing, anyway I thought it might be the PS1 cause its a POS and tried it on another tv, but with the proper av cables because it doesnt have s-video or anything and it was fine, but I dont think it'll be the cable more likely something to do with running it through my com.

Maybe someone is running a ps2 through their computer and has had a same problem I dont know, Thanks in advance anyway

If you really wanna make sure, bring it 'round to my b'day bash, I've got S-video in on the new TV.

I fixed it, the audio cables were around the wrong way and it fixed it for some reason.
