Eric_Collins 09-01-2009, 22:24 the tv is the new philips amb light it say you can put a pc to it all you need then is a D-SUB cable for the video and a 5mm jack to phono for the sound, That is for the best picture. or s-video adapter to phono from PC and phono to Tv and 5mm jack to phono for sound. That will connect to the Red,White and yellow phono http://www1.dealextreme.com/productimages/sku_4723_1.jpgon the TV. all parts you need can be easy bought for less than a tenner, the bottom option is like a quid from pound land. here is an old but yet idiots guide http://support.gateway.com/support/manlib/Desktops/Updates/8507474/07474.htm |
