Using TV as monitor via S-video
 

hey all, sorry if this has been posted before.

I want to hook my 42" Samsung HDTV up to my computer so that I can watch cardrunners videos and stuff in my living room. I've got a long enough S-video cable, and both my TV and computer video card have S-video inputs.

I've hooked up the cable to both ends and consulted a few online guides but I'm a little lost. What do I do now? I couldn't find anything in my display properties menu or in my video cards control center program that tells me what to do. any ideas?

You have to set your TV to the s video input, and set your computer to output to the svideo (like if you have a laptop there is a function key that is like CRT/LCD or something) Thats it.
