Info I found on the http://www.gamesx.com forums;
"The new version of TvTool (a utility for managing tv-output on compatible graphics cards) now has options for direct RGB and component output. This should give excellent picture quality while still being Windows-compatible. Note that you'll need to check for a compatible graphics card. Details are a bit sketchy so far, but there's a bit about it here:

According to the page it works with Nvidia TNT and GeForce cards with TV out.

If anyone tries this, please post how it works on an arcade monitor.

I've had some bad experiences with this software. I respect the amount of work that the author has put in, but it mildly hosed a clean system and caused some really funky errors. Just letting people know.

Have you tried the newer version? The news page for it list a bunch of fixes to problems.
