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.
The NTSC format is common in the United States, Canada,
Japan, and South Korea. The PAL format is common in Europe,
China, Russia, and Africa, and the PAL-M format is common in
Brazil. Other South American and Central American countries
may use NTSC, PAL, or PAL-M.

1. Select Start > Control Panel > Appearance and Themes >
Display > Settings tab.
2. Select the Advanced button > ATI Displays tab.
