Connecting to tv

[Chris Mac]

Can I connect my laptop to my tv with a VGA cable? I want to watch live streams for matches on the tv rather than the small screen on my laptop.

Should be able to.

Y0u'll need to know how to change the display setting on your laptop so that it chooses the TV screen to display on.

'Control panel / display / display properties i think'

can't you stream to the tv instead?

Now, 'cos I'm an old fooker I wouldn't have any idea how to stream to the tv!!!

 

[yerwot?]

you need a vga to pal converter £30 for a phono connection £80 for wireless

Cheers for the advice.

I done mine got a lead from bowlers £3 pin type thing,got a headphone lead to carry the sound from lappy to TV...sorted,most TVs have the socket at the back, and then press F4 (think..got little pic of monitor screens on it) to switch monitors.no probs.....go look on youtube it'll walk you through it too.

If your TV has a PC channel it`s so easy,just connect you VGA cable and jack to jack audio cable to your telly,then change your channel to PC.Your monitor will then be your TV.

So easy mate

I use it all the time,saves burning films to disc that i have on my Laptop.
