I want to connect pc to older 28'' wide screen tv

[gibbsy07]

Hi i just joined this forum, and just wondered if anyone,with some knowledge,could help.

I have quite an old 28'' wide screen tv and would like to connect it to my computer, the route i would be taking is to connect a vga output to a scart input, the guy at the computer shop has a cable like this for me.

My question is would this work, i have an acer aspire desktop computer, with a built in graphics,card, that probably doesn,t have a tv out fascility, what i mean is there is no s video output only vga.

On my computer the lowest resolution i can set it to is (800 by 600 pixels) if anyone has any advice or think they can help i would appreciate it thanks.

The two don't connect well. What are your expectations? A TV makes a poor computer monitor but will be ok (not good) for movies.

VGA analog RGB 800x600 does not directly comvert to TV SCART RGB. That "cable" better have a big electronics box in the middle.

Normal computer interface is S-Video to an older TV.

Hi the reason i want this option is to watch movies without the convertion, so will the vga to scart option not work, i dont have s video on my computer, nor do i have it on my tv, just scart, thanks.
