| Cable from computer to tv? Hey, I was hoping someone would be able to tell me what kind of cable i need to link my computer to the tv, i want to use the tv as my monitor, the only thing i can use though is either a scart end into my tv or those red white and yellow cables. I have got a graphics card in my computer if that helps but it does not contain all the slots for aerials and things like that. This is not my exact model but here is an image of the back of a graphics card that looks like mine:  I obviously use the slot on the left at the moment but whats the right one for, is that for linking computer to a tv? (sorry if i am a bit dumb with this, i am not that bright with graphics cards. Edit: Would this be what i need: BTXL18150 Component Video to VGA (HD15) Cable 15m - FutureShop.co.uk ? __________________  Great looking text - by just typing into a box you can create great looking text for your msn names, myspace, bebo, netlog, facebook and more          Last edited by Lee : 12-02-2007 at 11:40 AM.  |

| The socket on the right is a DVI (Digital Visual Interface) connector. Newer monitors and some flat screen TVs are being fitted with DVI. High definition plasma screens and top end spec TFTs are also fitted with DVI inputs The small round socket at the extreme left is what you could use to connect to a TV because that is an S-Video out socket. __________________ Chris Indifference will be the downfall of mankind, but who cares?

| Yup, you can get much better quality with the dvi connection but the svideo connection is more likely to be on your dvd player  (Worse quality though)__________________ Day Cares | Golf Courses | Disc Golf Courses | Campgrounds | Ice Rinks | Paintball Fields | Dentists | Plastic Surgeons | Aging Jokes Catholic Churches | Lutheran Churches | Methodist Churches | Episcopal Churches | Clean Jokes |
