Hey /crt/. I am trying to connect my PC to a CRT via S-Video but the colors are all wonky. Chroma is saturated by about 200% and the whites look grey. I can fix oversaturation in drivers by lowering the saturation to 50% but the white levels can't be fixed this way. Does anyone know what's the real issue here? I'm running Windows 7, but I didn't have such problems back when I had Windows XP on this same system. The gpu is ATI HD3850.

Attaching photos of the CRT. On the left a white-to-black stair-stepping gradient (white looks gray). On the right Windows desktop, the logo is horribly oversatured, the middle should be white, not this muddy gray.

I tried googling for similar issues but the only lone post I found said something about "hardware overlay", no real explanation for me.
