you need to have a device (converter) which instead of using your monitor to watch a movie for example, you can have it on your TV. Try to view the source link please for more info.

I am pretty sure I saw media center in shops for sale, so you must be able to buy it. I have it on two of the computers here, and like it. I thought it was a version of windows home and some easier ways to access video, and I discovered that what i have is windows pro, with all the back up, etc, plus the multimedia stuff. So, go for media center, you get windows pro for cheaper.... and maybe you will buy a tv tuner sooner or later.

You cant watch regular TV on the computer...unless you get a TV card for the computer.\n\nYou can only watch internet TV on your computer without that card.\nIf you wanna try that go to this link and they will guide you to a TV station with online broadcasts\n\nhttp://wwitv.com/portal.htm

You must have a video card that either:\n-have RCA adaptors in the back of PC to connect to TV\n-DVI connection in the back for HD TV\n-S-VHS VIVO (video in/video out) adaptor to connect to TV\n-S-VHS to HDTV adaptor \n\nOtherwise you can't.

You don't need the TV Tuner card... you just need cable - what kind that will depend on what ports your pc and tv has. \n\n1. If your PC and TV both have an S-Video port, you need an S-Video to S-Video cable. Such a cable is easily available in electronics/cable section of stores, e.g. Radioshack, Target, Walmart, etc.\n\n2. If your PC has an S-Video but your TV doesn't, most likely your TV has RCA port - in such a case you need S-Video to RCA cable. This cable is difficult to find in the store... but you can check out the website www.cables.com (or smth like that). That is where I bought it from.

The Hauppage program you watch TV on will do it. Just watch TV and click on the button which is usually a small green one inbetween the channel control (can be hard to see!). Whatever is being played through the video input will then be displayed although it will have borders. It makes no difference about graphic power, you're just running the video through the pc so that makes no difference.

Yeah, exactly, you want to get a graphics card with TV-out. As you probably guessed this means it will send the signal out to the TV. It will most likely use a yellow S-Video cable, and you will need to buy a cable that will come from your sound card with the red and white (or black) audio channels. If your TV doesn't accept S-Video then you should be able to pick up an S-Video to Scart adapter for about $5.

Try turning off the baby monitor. Then turn off power to all of the appliances in your network (PC, modem, and router). Then turn on power to all of the network appliances and turn on your computer. If you are able to surf the net without a problem then it is the monitor. If it still doesn't work, then plug the modem directly in to your tower (without the router) to see if you can surf. The baby monitor should have nothing to do with your cable tv though as that the two are not related. You should find the problem by completing the above troubleshooting though.

You can do this.  I have a computer with a TV card, too.  Look for the video and sound inputs (should be white, yellow and red).  And in your media center there should be a option to play that input device.  If you want to just connect your PS2 to your monitor you have to buy a VGA box.  Here's an example:

the s-video jack (out) of pc go to the s-video jack (in) on the tv (for display) and the rca jacks of pc goes to rca jack in of tv (audio). then find which port you used in the tv. if still no picture go to display setting of pc select tv or both for display this should fix it

I actually experimented with this a few years ago when I returned from living in Japan. Having lived overseas for almost two years, I decided not to simply go back to my life as it was before. So initially, I went without cable (or satellite, which I've never had), a cell phone, magazine subscriptions, etc. Gradually, I began reinstating such habits and possessions but I was intrigued to see how long it would take to make the adjustment.\n\nWell, the television thing was intriguing. I found that without benefit of the usual gazillion channels (and options to waste time sitting in front of the idiot box), I watched little to no TV. In fact, limited as I was to only local network fare, I relied heavily on PBS if and when I actually did watch TV at all. I was almost proud of myself for not returning to form... almost.\n\nWhat ended up happening was that I basically bowed to social pressures. This is almost a topic for another question but I realized how much watching and following sports serves as a function of social bonding (particularly with my fellow males). So that eventually necessitated getting ESPN. Loving films as I do, I also missed TCM. Picture quality was another major issue (have you tried using rabbit ears recently? good grief!). And before I knew it -- in this case, within two months -- I was back to my old habits. \n\nBut hey, I am still living without a cell phone and that's something, isn't it? :-)

Be aware that because of the different systems used between computer monitors and televisions, you will likely get a VERY low resolution in the television and everything will be blurry.\n\nThe TV should have tri-prong A/V input (white, red, yellow), you can get an adapter to run the digital monitor  cable from your computer into a tri-prong A/V cable, and that should work..
