well i got this cool pc to tv plug.. hoping i can hook up my old celeron to the tv and surf the net on my 36"... but noooo... its black and white and ... i dunno the word but its traveling really fast from 1 end of the screen to the other..... its a simple cable.. from the pc monitor plug it has the rca cables and s-video...i tried almost everything.. what do i gotta do ? change the monitor selection in windows ? the size ?.. right now i got it set to 640x480 and when i put it to 60mhz (i think).. the flipping stops.. but i got a black n white double image.. and its somewhat shaking..... i got a voodoo3 2000 3dfx video card if that helps.. if anyone could tell me something.. id really really appreciat it thanks wait... what ?

ragez0r, seems to me that you should be able to use your T.V. as a monitor provided it offers enough resolution (some don't). Is there a T.V. out plug on your video card? Some cards allow only one at a time, not both. Perhaps you need a different driver? What you want CAN be done. Sometimes not the easiest thing to do. HTH. Ed in Texas.

the video card does not have a tv out.. just a pc monitor out... its an old card.. thats why i bought the cable its 1 end monitor plug and the other end rca cable (the yellow one).. so why cant i see diddly ? wait... what ?

ragez0r, First: What is this "...this cool pc to tv plug..."? {Manufacturer and what it's called} Second: Did it come with any software and user instructions? Third: Yes, refresh rate and screen size, will make a difference. Seeing, as the tv only has one fixed setting, signal, that it does. This will take more, than just hooking up a cable, and turning it on. Settings, correct signal, ect. Does this cable, you list what is at the ends, have a box (or something) in the middle of it?

no box just cables here have a look... im not sure if you can post links.. but ill just put xx intsead of tt hxxp://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=41999&item=6750072370&rd=1 well ive tried all resolutions and frequencies.. but so far.. nada... please help wait... what ?

ragez0r, Sorry, I didn't get back to this right away. Been swamped with things to do, and also have a _____ cold. First: You said; "the video card does not have a tv out.." I know you were talking about connections. But, that most likely means, it has NO "TV-Out function capability" (Your link) Would have to check the specs for the card, most likely not. Second: "no box just cables" If there is nothing, to change/convert the signal, by way of this cable. Then your card, would have to do it. Sorry, that's/this is not what you wanted/want to hear. But, I don't think you can get this cable to work, with that card. Just my opinion. Good Luck, CrazyOne
