i've been looking around and some sites have been telling me that i need to connect the s-video plug in my video card to the s-video plug in my T.V. Well i see the s-video plug on my T.V. but i don't think my desk top has one. Does anyone know any other way i can can view my sony vaio's display on a television screen besides a connection through an s-video cable because i don't think my computer has a port for that type of cable?

thanks

can you take pictures of all of the ports your computer has?

my cameras battery is dead at the moment but here are some plugs i found that i think should work

I should be able to connect from my regular screen plug to the TV using that adaptor right?

it depends if you have an S video plug on your computer

do you know if you have any?

and are you currently using it?

i dont think i have one im almsot positive

well, the painless way to do this is going o get a picture of this , so is there any way you can charege or replace your batts. in your camera to take a quick pic of the back of the pc

yeah i just unplugged it, it is definately blue and i am using it right now, but i dont know if it has that 10 5 11 and stuff its too small and dark to see

ok then we will be able to use it then , umm give me a few moments to find a splitter and the nessecary cables. do you have a certain budget for this . and what part of the world are you located

i meant i dont have the s-video in the back sorry lol and i need to charge the cameras battery pack thing and i have relatives sleeping in the room where the camera is so i'd be setting myself up for a kill

oh yeah and i see you are from florida me too w00t

ok then you can buy from a good known store Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, Digital Cameras and more!

well when you can get a pic of the back we will continue

well the 1st one will make it so the tv will work but , the monitor wont plus you probly need more cables to convert it , the second one will if you have S video , which id need a picture to determine .

i think the simpliest thing will be is to just get a splitter for your D-sub and run both at once when you want the tv on.... let me see if i can find one

"tv will work but , the monitor wont plus you probly need more cables to convert it"

i think you are thinking im trying to use my T.V. and pc monitor at the same time, all i want is to use my T.V. only as the display not more than one screen

dont need them to be on at same time ... well that makes it eiser

let me find some cables youll need

im only trying to connect my tower to my T.V. and nothing else
