My TV is sitting right above my computer in my office and Im looking to buy a new monitor. The thought just occured to me to somehow connect my computer to my tv ( which are only 12 inches apart). Is this possible? Would I need any special equipment? Thank for your help as I know very little about computers and even less about televisions.

How Can I Make The Games Work By Using A Samsung Flat-panel Lcd Tv For As A Computer Monitor?

My ATI video card has an S-VIDEO port & uses a cable to run to the S-VIDEO port on the back of the TV. You have to download & install a CATALYST CONTROL CENTER program from ATIs web site & set it up from there. I am sure NVIDIA has the same deal. Your TV becomes your montor & you can even watch TV on your computer. Just make sure both your TV & video card has the S-VIDEO plug, most newer models do.

How Do I Connect A Phillips 42″ Flat Tv As A Monitor To An Emachine Et1161-07 Computer?

According to Emachine’s specs for your computer: http://www.emachines.com/products/produc… It says you have a VGA port.
You can connect your EMachines computer to your Philips flatscreen directly only if your Philips TV also has a VGA port. In that case, you use a standard VGA Monitor cable.
If your Philips flatscreen does not have a VGA port, then the best thing to do would be to upgrade your Emachines to a better graphics card, one with either a DVI or HDMI output. That is possible since the Emachines specs say you have an available PCIExpress 16x expansion slot. You can connect a video card’s DVI or HDMI output directly to your Philips’ HDMI ports. And this is the best way to do it, because DVI / HDMI are digital connections (VGA is analog).
Hope this helps.

Can I Use A Flat Screen Monitor In Place Of A Tv?

My TV is about to die, and I am thinking it might just be worth my while to replace my TV with a 20 inch flat monitor. Just making sure it can be done.
The way I am thinking, a TV in addition to the screen has a receiver to get the channels and an amplifier/speakers for sound.
But if i get my TV stations through a cable box, and amplify my sound thru an audio receiver, wouldn’t it make sense that all I really need is the screen (the built in receiver and amplifier in a TV is superflous). In addition, I have the Miglia eye TV, compatible with my macbook, so I can get TV stations on my MacBook (it is an analog to digital converter)
I think it is a neat idea, and flat panel monitors cost less than flat screen TVs, plus I could use it for more stuff on my computer.
But before I go out and buy a 20+ in monitor, just want to check that it can be done.
Also is there a way to stream video (all video, including TV and DVD) wirelessly from my laptop to the monitor?

Yes, but only if your PC or video card has TV-output. Otherwise there is no way you could connect the two together.
