Cause
TV output isn’t supported with full-screen DOS display modes (for example, the
information you see before Windows starts) or with standard VGA mode (for example, when
you restart Windows in “safe mode”). Older programs may use these display modes. While
one of these display modes is in use, your TV displays nothing (black).
