The Device Manager says that Legacy is correctly installed.

Power Director4 has a "Capture" button where (once pushed) it auto detects
what devices are connected. Currently, it is not detecting that I have the S
video cable is connected. I have checked that all cords have power and are
plugged in all the way.

I am just concerned that I have either the wrong cords or I need different
equipment. Could this be what is wrong? What else could it be?
