Take a look at a utility called PowerStrip from here: http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/ps.shtm\n\nIt's designed for working with custom resolutions and refresh rates. You can also find more information about hooking up TVs to computers at AVSforum.com

Yes there is. You have to buy a cable that hooks up to your computer and the tv. Teachers at my school do it all the time.

I've been wondering the same thing and came across this cool device called a 'Slingbox' that would allow you to watch your TiVo, Cable, DVR (and tv, dvds, etc) across the internet on any computer.\n\nhttp://www.slingmedia.com

Install a TV card - if its not on free to air TV, you may have to get Foxtell hooked up as well.

At the back of your laptop you will see the S-connector. You need a cable called s-connector cable. You connect that from you laptop to your TV. Then go to your desktop. Right click anywhere on your desktop. Go to properties, then settings, advance, monitor tab, click dual monitor. On your TV put it on video or dvd mode. You should be able to watch movie on your TV coming from your laptop.

1. Connect the S-Video cable on both laptop and TV in any order (first or second is irrelevant)!..\n\n2. Find the icon which belongs to your video card in your computer (mine is ATI), make right click on it. Then follow to  "settings" tab, and then left click on the "display settings tab".\n\n3. On the "multiple monitors" "pop out window" click on the "display" tab and then press on the TV button!..\n\nAt the end of this step you have to be able to see your computer desktop on your TV!...Your TV has to be in a specific channel (mine works on the 00 channel which is were I get the signal. -For some TVs might work on 3 or 4, or maybe you have to find it and surf all available channels in your TV-)!...\n\nIf your whole desktop or the whole full screen of your movie can't be seen on your TV, then you need to right click on your desktop and click on "properties", and on the "Display properties" tab adjust the resolution (mine works on the 1024x768 pixels - My TV is a 27 inch-)!...\n\nGood Luck!...

Your laptop would have to have a video output in order to set it up with a TV.  (Either SVideo, RCA)  You could also go the route of using a Scan Converter which runs through your monitor signal as another option.

First you need a tv card.\nGet one at fry`s.\nPlug it into the wall(You might need a amplifier)\nThe tv card should have software on it.\nThats my advice.

Theres a PC called Windows XP Home Media Center. You can do all these in it. You just need a cable, a comupter having Media Center and Electricity and of course Brains.

these answers that suggest of using a USB to USB Datalink Cable are in principle correct but it doesn't work because you can neither share the folders nor install the communication program on the PC for this Link Cable. did you ever try to do this blindly? .. :p\nso it might be the better solution to hook the TV set to the PC using a S-video cable, provided that the PC has an S-video output and the TV set has the corresponding input.

put a t.v. on top of your computer

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.

Different computers have different outputs, and TVs have different inputs.  Mac's have an adapter that comes with the computer, PowerBooks have an s-video out that can be plugged into some higher-end equipment.  Most Windows boxes have a VGA out that you will need an adapter for.\n\nAlso, make sure you know how to switch your computers output so the video signal goes down the wire to your tv and not just to the computer screen...

add a tv tuner card to one of your empty slots in the back of your computer. then you either use a spliter from your cable box to your computer or a direct line to the back of your computer. you will be able to watch anythiig that the tuner picks up
