Color Issues-Please Help.

[chopper]

I just got a SECOND HAND commodore 64 and parts. Everything is hooked up and I figured out how to load games. The problem is that I am using a newer color TV but everything is in Black an White. How do I get color? What am I doing wrong? Please Help someone-Thanks.

Are you using the Separate Video connector? (Looks like a stereo AV cable when infact it's not..)

Yellow: Luma
Red: Chroma
White: Audio

You'll need to use the RF connection until you can get a proper cable.

That is unless the C64 has a problem or your using the wrong region system.
