How To Easily Connect Your Laptop/PC To Your Television Screen
S-Video Cable

Thinking of connecting your laptop to you TV Sets,
this little guide will help you with that. This short
guide describes how you can  easily connect your laptop or notebook
computer to your TV screen using standard ports like S-Video, VGA or DVI.  I employ you to kindly grab a cup of coffee or tea, sit back and
relax, enjoy my tutorial.

How To Easily Connect Your Laptop/PC To Your Television Screen

VGA or DVI

Step 1: Some of the computers currently existing  have
an S-Video port which  can be connected easily  to the
S-Video input of your television screen using affordable  S-Video
cable (this cable is round with approximately  4 or 7 pins). Most
people/users using outdated monitor, can use the 15-pin VGA cable to connect
the computer to the television screen and it will offer improved picture
superiority than the S-Video cable.
Now
that the newer HDTVs and laptop computers have DVI ports so a DVI Male to Male
Cable or DVI to HDMI Adapter Cable can be used to clasp the computer display
and the TV. The DVI to HDMI cable can be used when your HDTV doesn’t have a DVI
port but does have an HDMI port.
Connect the Audio RCA
Cable for Sound
Step 2: After you might have connected the computer to the
TV using a physical cable,  what you need now is  another
cable to transmit the sound as all the above cables only transmit the video but
not the audio part.

 So
you need a 3.5mm Mini Plug to RCA Cable Stereo to connect the audio line out
from a PC  to your television. The red cable connector goes into the
red socket of your TV, black connector into the black socket while the black
connector goes into the 3.5 mm headphone jack of your computer.
Step 3: After you might have been through with the steps
above, Open the “display settings” on your Windows computer and
activate the output to the TV screen. You can also reflect content of your
computer on the TV or make bigger the display simply to look like  a
dual monitor screen.
For
most users that are using Windows 7,  gently press the keyboard
shortcut Windows + P to quickly access the display settings or kindly  search
for “Connect to External Display” in the Windows Run box.
Step 4: Wow, you are almost done..lol… kindly Pick
up your TV remote and switch to “External Inputs” from the menu. You will need
to change the default “Video 1” to a dissimilar selection which might be “HDMI
1” or “Video 2” depending on how you have made the correlation.
Significant
guide to Note
 Ensure that you
connect the physical cable to the TV before turning on the computer, this is
because, at some points it may fail to recognize external display. You may
perhaps need to change the screen resolution of your TV using the Display
settings in your Control Panel, because without this, the picture possibly will
every now and then emerge  to be hazy.
