Component and Composite cables share some of the same colors, but if you plug, for example, a red composite lead into a red component jack, it's not going to work (unless you happen to have a TV that was actually set up to do that... there are a few). If you think you're plugging into the correct jacks, then try the system on an older TV that you know for certain has composite hookups. That will at least let you determine whether the problem is in the HDTV or in the console/cable. I would take a close look at the connections on the back of the TV before anything else.

One of my TVs can only display the supernintendo games in black and white. I went to an hdtv and it worked fine. It could just be your hdtv. It may be your TV.
