How can I show monitor image on TV screen

W

Walter R.

I am using Win XpSP2. As a $ 9/month subscriber to Netflix I can view many
of their movies on my computer monitor screen, without charge.

I would like to watch these movies on my regular TV. How can I get the image
from the computer monitor to the TV screen?

Can this be done and how?

Thanks

It depends on your TV set and on your laptop. Some TV sets have a VGA input,
which you can connect to your PC with a VGA cable. Others have a CINCH
socket on the TV set that you can connect to a 3mm socket on your laptop.
You really need to read the manuals that came with your PC and your TV set.
The VGA cable will probably give you better quality.

Some PC's come with HDMI, DVI or S Video connectors. My laptop has S
Video.

My desktop computer does not have any of the above, only a VGA out
connector.

Do they make any PCI cards for this purpose?

Thanks
