Component connections keeps cutting out, any idea why?

I have recently connected my 360 up to the component sockets in the back of the TV. It is not a HD ready TV but i flicked the selector switch on the xbox lead over to HDTV anyway to see what happens. It worked and the picture is better on HDTV mode than on normal TV mode but I keep momentarily losing the picture. Should I flick back to normal TV and remain connected to the component sockets?

Update:

is not a HD ready TV so only works on 480p, tried it on the rest but get nothing

    yeah i would switch it back and see if it stops flickering if it does then you will know that having the switch on hd is why it was doing it.

    make sure everythings connected tight, could be a problem with ur lead, also make sure your yellow lead isnt connected to anything, they should all be connected but the yellow one and make try different hd modes in the settings, eg 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p, maybe its set too high for your tv

    Hope this helps
