If the TV Scart does S-video then it should be much better. I have an
old P233 PC next to our TV for my daughter to play games on and the S-
video picture is a lot sharper than the composite.

Scart is just a plug. It can carry composite, RGB, S-video and
combinations thereof, in both directions.

I think that if the TV only does RGB and composite you will get a B&W
picture.
