I’m writing this post on how to connect your PC or computer to a TV because last week I returned from a trip in India and wanted to show all of my pictures and videos to my family from my laptop onto our HDTV, but sorry to say I did not have the right cords and so with fumbling nearly for 30 outline tiresome to connect my computer to the TV, I had to tell all that they would have to wait till the next weekend! cute irritating considering the times we live in, it must be quite simple to connect the two together!
So here’s a quick walk-through of all the methods that I know (if you know any more, delight comment) to connect a laptop or PC to your TV:
1. S-Record – This is doubtless the most ordinary mode out there currently because an S-Record cable is low-cost as heck and just about every TV under the sun has a S-Record port. You’ll have to make sure you laptop is equipped with this port. Dredge up, there are two types of S-Record cables: 4-pin and 7-pin. Most laptops and PC’s are equipped with a 7-pin port, so if your TV only has a 4-pin S-Record port, then this mode will not work.
2. VGA – If you have a HDTV, then you will be better off connecting using a VGA cable. It gives much better quality than S-Record and as with S-Record, the cable is very low-cost. You usually won’t find a VGA port on fixed TV’s though, so this selection is if you have an HDTV.
3. DVI - DVI stands for Digital Visual Boundary with “digital” being the key word there. The digital indicate will give a higher quality picture than any S-Record or VGA. Of course, your computer will need to have a DVI tie and your TV will need to be an HDTV. This cord is beyond doubt not low-cost, it ranges anywhere from $40 to $80.
4. HDMI – Using HDMI will give you the best quality by far. No computers that I know of yet have HDMI ports, but you can get a DVI to HDMI cable to connect it to your HDTV. HDMI is well-matched with DVI.
5. Scan Converter Box – This is the last mode that I could reckon of and it involves using a scan converter box, which takes a VGA indicate and converts it into S-Record or component record.
Here’s a visual I made with some pictures of the innumerable cables:

Hope this helps someone! If you have any other dreams or suggestions, delight feel free to comment!!! Thankfulness!
