My Dreamcast is black and white on my HDTV
Lashek:
Alternatively, you could do VGA cable from Dreamcast hooked to an HDMI converter box.
I use a Tomee VGA cable on my Dreamcast, and a cheap VGA to HDMI converter box that also handles audio.
sheep2001:
is it a pal game on a pal dreamcast?
I remember ps1 ntsc games on pal ps1 were black and white without the correct cables.

It sounds like you have a composite signal plugged into a component signal. Are you sure your TV accepts composite signal?

If the TV is modern flatscreen it does not matter anymore, as they show picture in colors no matter the cable as long as the cable itself is not faulty.
