Here is my dilemma: I'm using a 25" TV in my cabinet using S-video straight to my videocard that supports it. Everything works perfectly fine this way.
However I want to add a Dreamcast to my cab and have it on a different input, but the only other input is a component one. I don't think they even make Dreamcast component cables so I was going to instead use a DVI-to-component adapter and hook up the PC to the TV from the DVI port straight to the component.
I do this and it shows nothing on the screen at all. I switch back to S-video and it shows perfectly.
Is there something I'm completely clueless on(Obviously) that I'm not understanding here? The adapter I used it this:

I'm just trying to be able to have both my Dreamcast and PC hooked to the TV at the same time but I'm having trouble seeing as how I only have two inputs(S-video and component).
Any help would be appreciated. I hope I elaborated enough on my problem.
