Graphics cards outputs to TV in monochrome

I'm using an S-Video to composite convertor until I can get a better lead.

Is this the reason?

yep! you can wire together the luminace and chominance pins if you want a quick solution, but it'll probably look a bit a bit crappy...

Make sure output is set to pal I,also is it the correct lead for the card? I know your cards new so it should have come with its own
