Why are you using two conflicting ConnectedMonitor options (when you really shoulnd't be using any)? Is your TV capable of doing 1024x768 ? That definitely won't work with Composite out. Also, 1.0-9755 is no longer supported. You should upgrade to 100.14.11. See: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=46678
