Community Newsletter: Q&A forum: Connect LCD TV to Computer and Internet

Hello Scott,

I think this is a good question. First you need to check if your LCD TV has a slot on the back side, just like your moniter has on the back where you attached the cable from the CPU. if it has then you need to read manual of your LCD TV, because now a days all LCD TV supports computer payback. So if you have purchased LCD TV recently say not more than 9 months back. then its very much possible just check and try what i have mentioned above. I am using my LCD TV as a moniter sometimes or for a change.

I hope this helps....
Cheers......

If you are using a laptop or a notebook then S-Video Cable is also an option for making the Tv work as an external display.I'm sure the LCD must be having an S-Video Port but do confirm whether your PC has one.

You can also connect your PC to your T.V. using a DVI/VGA cable. You will also need to get an RCA 'Y' adapter,plug it into the computer earphone jack, and run 2 RCA cables to the audio input on your T.V. The picture isn't as good as it would be if you used a DVI/HDMI cable, but it's better than a DVI/S-video connection. I like to stream full episodes from the NBC website (such as Late night with Conan O'brian, Alfred Hitchcock, Fear Itself, etc.) Good luck with your connection.

I had pre-ordered the Channel Master power line 4 port adapter. Now i have great connection to my x-box, tv, and living-room computer and all I have is one router hooked up in my bedroom. Set up must have taken less than a minute to figure out (even without instructions). This product is seriously brilliant! Highly recommended
