Hey guys first of all i joined today but i know this forums since long time because of all the helpful stuff . And i am sorry if i posted in wrong section. So here is my question what i have is a 42" flat screen tv from Philips I have a pc from Gateway , gateway GT5220 Ok what i want to do is connect my pc to the tv , because i dont want burn dvd's or dvd rw's , its one time use and i usually scratch dvds This was my plan at first, i wanted to use Dvi to HDMI cable and connect my pc to tv and use a Y sound cable to bring sound to tv then i discovered that my pc doesnt have a DVI port , so this is what i decided to do Get a VGA to DVI adapter , then i use the DVI to HDMI to connect to the tv , would that work ? Thanks
No. You'll need something like this. http://www.startech.com/item/VGAHD2HDMI-VGA-HD-with-Audio-to-HDMI-Format-Converter.aspx You best bet would be a HD series type video card. ATI has several inexpensive ones. This one may do the trick. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125251
