Port Types
-
An LCD monitor or TV can have any one of the following video input ports: HDMI, VGA, DVI, or RCA. If it has a matching port, you only need to run a cable from one connector to the other.
Digital Ports
-
Converters and adapters are available for making a VGA connector compatible with a digital port, such as DVI or HDMI. You will have to obtain an inexpensive DVI-VGA adapter or a more costly HDMI converter box, depending upon which port the TV or monitor offers.
RCA Jack
-
An LCD television with an RCA connector might successfully receive video output from your PC if you attach an inexpensive VGA-RCA adapter. However, this only works on some PCs. Be sure to check the owner's manual.
