A question for you techy people :)

I believe you need s - video out to conect an tv to an laptop. Thats the only cable you need because svideo carries both audio and video, like coaxial. Mabye try this little gaget: http://www.ramelectronics.net/html/u...o_adapter.html

As I said, my computer is pretty basic and doesn't have s-video...it would make life so much easier if it did though D: I only have usb and vga

From the same site Reggie posted, might do the job.

I have tv cards in some of my pcs so hooking up a tv is easy but wouldn't work unless you have a tv card in the laptop

What about audio? how would I hook audio up? I want to watch movies that I have on my computer or episodes I download

I think s-video is the same thing that hooks up to my satellite dish. This might work (digital input, analog output.)

try this --

VGA on one end, RCA on the other. $36 at Tiger Direct

or $29 from the manufacturer -- http://www.cablesunlimited.com/produ...No=PCM-2330-50

Maybe email them first with what you want to do, just to make sure it will work, it before buying one?

As i posted, S - Video carries both audio and video. So there is no need for additional cables.

Again, as i posted, an USB to S - Video converter.
