    Am looking for advice about linking my laptop to a TV screen. I have an S-video lead and a scart adaptor but when I plug it all in nothing happens. Not sure if i am trying to do the impossible or using the wrong equipment or what really...any suggestions welcome!

    you will have to tell your notebook that you are adding a tv or extra monitor to your outs.

    Right click on your desktop and select properties/settings/then either in display or advamced settings your going to have to make this change (depending on your notebook configurations)
