Well i have an original Xbox, S Video lead with a red and white audio jack. it wouldnt work on my tv, so i brought this:

So as soon as i get home, i plug the s video lead into the s video slot, the red jack and the white audio jack and then i plug it in, it boots, shows a picture HOORAY however the picture is black and white? why is this? its a fairly new TV every other thing works on it DVD freeview etc etcw, what is the problem?

thank you in advance

What model is the tv does it not have a s-video jack in the side.
Some tvs no longer support s-video over scart some only support s-video via one of the scarts normally scart no 2.

telly only has 1 scart at the back, no matter where i put the scart adapter whether in the back of the tv, freeview box, dvd player still Black and white picture + the dvd player has s video slot at the back and theres ABSOLUTELY NO PICTURE when plugged into that.......

If the tv cant accept the s-video signal then it wont make a difference what you plug the scart adapter into.

So what make is the tv does it not even have s-video input on the side either.

the make is "BUSH". it doesnt have s video on the side it is just a FAT TV, sort of like this. its not old but not flat screen omfg new as its just for my room and i dont use it at all usually.

Do you not have the normal xbox lead with the red/white/and yellow connections that you can plug into the scart instead of the s-video lead.

Prob a long shot but on some tvs in there menu system you could alter the type of input the scart socket would accept but i doubt the bush has this also try looking for pal/ntsc setting aswell.

meh just ****ty contrst/brightness/sharpness settings
