Configuration #1 - HDTV or PC Monitor with DVI inputs.  To connect to one display and toggle between the PC desktop/full-screen HDTV, connect the loop-back cable between DVI output of your video card and the MyHD DVI Daughter Card input.  Connect another DVI cable from the DVI Daughter Card output to your HDTV or Monitor's DVI input\n\n\nConfiguration #2 - HDTV and PC Monitor in Separate Monitor Mode.  Configuration #2 displays separate connections to a computer monitor and HDTV both with DVI inputs.  PC Monitor can also be connected to the VGA but MDP-120's VGA and DVI outputs cannot output full-screen HDTV simultaneously to two different displays in.  DVI daughter card also adds TOSLINK audio output feature to the MDP-120.

you need a video card that has TV-out ability.\n\nplease note that vid cards of recent manufacture usually only have an S-video out connection.  If you need a coaxil connection for your older TV, (like mine,) you may need to look for it online.\n\nhope this helps.

FIRST..Is the PC "input" to allow it's use as a monitor?  If yes, then it is "one-way" only, and would not work as you are suggesting. Considering it's use as a monitor, your graphics card should suffice. (Many non-tech people have trouble with "input" and "output" as to which is which.)\n\nIf it IS a two way connection, (such as USB, Firewire, etc.) there would HAVE to be some software for the PC, and an appropriate connecting cable.\n\nWithout seeing the set and the manual, I am guessing that it is set up to work as a monitor as this is quite common.  This is primarily so that "media center" units and those with "TV" cards can use the bigger screen for output, (like a bigger monitor.)

if you want to show what's on your computer on your tv screen, you need to have a s-video outlet on your computer and tv.

First, you need a video card that has a s-video connection. If you do indeed have that - shut down the computer and connect the s-video cable to the s-video out on your video card (on the computer - that will be where the monitor plugs in) and the other end to the s-video in on the TV. Start back up and you should be in business.

you need a video card that supports tv out via s-video or composite connection.  it really helps to know what video card you are using and its display capabilities.  if you have a s-video out on your video card, you would plug an s-video cable into the video card and the other to the tv(or a composite cable depending on your tv connections).  windows xp will usally detect the tv after rebooting your computer and no further setup is needed.  hope this helps.

You need a S-Video to composite cable, assuming you have the yellow white and red inputs on your tv.  You're going to change that you're using a composite cable and not an S-Video cable in your drivers or else it will be black and white or it'll be all pink and weird depending on the laptop and the graphics card.  If you need anymore information feel free to email me.\n\nP.S.

yes, you can.  What you need is either a monitor with red, yellow, and white inputs, or a monitor that will have them built in.\n\nGoogle around for a cable that will do it, im not sure that there is one, but I havent looked that hard.

First, check your video card.  Many cards have TV-out that allow you to plug a composite video cable or an S-video cable into it and then you can hook that directly into your TV.\n\nIf your card doesn't have TV out, you'll need a VGA to Composite converter.  You should be able to pick one of those up from Radio Shack or eBay.

You need to get a special Video Card.  Unless your Plasma Screen has Ports for hook up to your computer.\n\nI know for sure that ATI Radeaon (I don't think I spelled that correctly) makes some.  Some or all are called All-In-Wonder (by ATI).  I think they also work both ways so you can get cable on your Computer.

You can get a card for your computer that has an adapter that you can put the cable line on.  The adapter should come with the software that you will need to watch cable tv on your computer.  The cable line can be ran through a vcr and then to the adapter and that way you can either watch tapes or straight from the cable.

I suggest you get a 256 mb graphic card and make sure the hdtv has a dvi output. If it doesn't your dead.

Your monitor should work just fine - it uses a standard hdb-15 cable to connect to your computer.  \nMake sure you change the voltage settings on your power supply (of your computer) - it is usually a red switch in the back of your pc (by the power cord).
