Computer to TV

Post by ninja modder »

I have an NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 graphics card with a S-Video output and DVI output. and a monitor thing output....well i think i just need the S-Video output. But how would i go about doing that and hooking it up to my TV? I am almost positive i use the S-Video output on my video card but what cable do i need.....and what do i do for sound?

If your TV has an S-Video input cable, just run down to a Circuit City/Radio Shack/whatever and buy an S-Video cable.
For sound, you'd want to find a cable that goes from a 3.5mm plug (normal headphone jack, and probably what's on your computer's audio outputs) to two RCA plugs...then you can just output from your sound into your TV's input on sound.
