I haven't played my SNES in quite a while, so forgive me if this is wrong. Are you sure that you plugged your cable line into the converter box? I think that the game should run on channel 4, but it may be on video 1/2/etc.
theres a switch on the RF Adaptor that selects channels 3 or 4 (or it might be on the SNES) set the adaptor to 3 and TV to 3, if that doesn't work then set the adaptor to 4 and try 4 on the TV. If you're using A/V cables then obviously you have to set your TV to the A/V input. i feel kinda sad having to explain these things
OK first tell us what input you are using, RF or composite.
If RF and your going through a vhs player first thing you need to do is make sure the vhs player is hooked up to your tv and turned on (stupid step I know, but you would be amazed). Second play a vhs tape and find out how to display it on your tv. Last set your vhs player to channel 3 or 4, depending on what you switched the RF to, and last turn on the snes.
you can use a gamecube/n64 cable if you want to save yourself hassle, as they have the same video connector, and they all go into the scart socket. Oh and almost forgot, make sure you can switch to PAL from RGB as the SNES doesn't use RGB, atleast not that i know of

Well, is it working?

Seeing as he can't hook it up in the first place, I don't think he'll know the difference between RF and composite. :p
this may be obvious.. but make sure your signal is on componet. I think you mentioned an old TV... but signals now include componet, video, ect. The channel switch is on the SNES itself. Good luck.
