How do I Connect a PC to a Mitsubitshi TV?

VGA port common on many PCs

Mitsubishi TV sets are equipped with an S-video input socket for connecting other video components to display on the television, including a laptop computer. Personal computers that are also equipped with an S-video socket can use an S-video cable for a direct connection to the Mitsubishi. However, many PCs come with a video graphics array (VGA) port, typically used to connect an external monitor. An adapter cable with VGA on one end and S-video on the other is the solution for connecting a Mitsubishi.

Things You'll Need

• S-video cable or VGA to S-video cable

Instructions

1. Shut off the computer and the Mitsubishi TV.

2. Attach the plug on one end of the S-video cable to the S-video output on the back of the PC tower or push on the VGA plug on one end of the VGA-to-S-video adapter cable, if the PC has only a VGA output.

3. Connect the other end of the cable to the S-video input on the back of the Mitsubishi. The four pins in the plug align with the small holes inside the port.

4. Turn on the PC and the Mitsubishi.

5. Press the Mitsubishi remote control's "Source" button, release and press again until the PC desktop appears on the television screen.
