Help - How to connect my laptop to my TV?

thanks in advance.

Hi,

Most laptops have a S-Video output on the back, which either connects to the S-Video connector on you TV, or through an adaptor to a Composite Video or SCART socket.

If there is no TV out then it it possable to buy a converter to use on the VGA out, these cost around £30 in the UK

on mine my tv has a s-video socket on the front, so just plug it in there, you will also need a cable for the sound, just a hedphone socklet to phono plugs will do.
