Hi, I have an Apple IIgs computer hooked up to a Sony PVM monitor via composite video. However the video is only black and white. I tried both Apple II games an GS/OS. Any idea what would cause this?

Verify that the video output frame rate is set to 60Hz in the computer's control panel (the other option is 50Hz)!

I found a control panel on my system tools disk called "monitors" and switched the option from black and white to color,

thanks!
