EDTV/HDTV option -cannot select -

So i've bought Xenoblade and heard it was such a beautiful game and awesome game, so i decided to dust off the Wii and get it working! I took out my component cable and clicked everything into place as it should be. Then i got no picture.... I figured, i'd use the old composite cable, and see if i could change options in the Wii menu. I could - or the option was there, but i couldn't actually select it! I got abit more frustrated, and then i thought: "It's probably because i don't have the component cable inserted!" - but then i thought "How can i have two cables inserted?"... And now i'm here.. lost and cold :/


Somebody please help me, this worked a couple of months back, and now i can't get it to function the right way, why is the EDTV/HDTV not selectable? Why don't i at least get a picture with the component cable that's NOT 480p, what the heck is going on :(
