How would I connect my computer to my TV for movies?

When trying to watch movies on your TV from your computer with a VGA/SVGA Video cable, how do you properly connect the two?

  • Answer:

    The proper connection method would be plugging the VGA into your computer's VGA port and the SVGA into your TV's port. Your TV might require you to change the input mode before you can see your computer on the screen.

Connect the VGA/SGVA from your graphics card to your television (a lot of tvs don't have that though). Most graphics cards have two outputs and you must setup which output is doing what in your driver settings.
