I JUST CONNECTED THE PC TO TV WITH VGA TO RCA CABLE BUT PICTURE WON'T COME ON THE TV SCREEN

no.

That may be because you have connected the incorrect VGA port to the TV, remember you need a VGA card installed on you PC with the correct cables VGA to RCA cables to get this right.

Unless you hook HDMI to HDMI, you won't carry sound across the HDMI cable. If you're using a VGA to HDMI converter, you'll get the picture but no sound.

I have a feeling the headset jack on the TV is an output rather than an input. Most TVs accept HDMI, RCA, or a digital audio input (either coaxial or optical). Unless you have a S/PDIF optical output from your laptop (and you obviously don't have an HDMI output), then your only other choice is likely to get a cable that splits a 1/8" headset type connector into two RCA plugs that you'll plug into an AUDIO IN input on your TV.

I have two suggestions. First, make sure your TV is set up to receive inputs from the RCA jacks you're plugging the cable into. Second, you may have to change the screen resolution on the computer to something the TV can handle. To do this plug the VGA cable back into your normal monitor. Right click in the field. Left click on properties or personalize, depending on your operating system. Then left click on setting or display settings. There should be a slider bar where you can change the screen resolution. I'm guessing it's probably set too high for your TV. Try reducing it and then plug the VGA cable back into the RCA jack converter. I hope this helps you out.

Hi there,

Depending on what type of TV you have, connecting your PC to your TV shouldn't be very expensive. Most newer models of TVs come with a VGA input.

Your computer has a cable to go to the computer screen, this cable is known a s a VGA cable, it looks like this:


Your TV might have a VGA input which looks like this:

All you have to do is unplug your VGA cable from your computer screen and plug it in to your TV so your cable will go fro your computer to your TV instead of your computer to your screen.

If your TV doesn't have a VGA input, it will have an RCA input which looks like this:


You can buy a VGA to RCA cable which will allow you to connect your computer to your TV which looks like this:

no tube tv won't mirror monitor. needs vga connection at the back of tv.go to store have a look at lcd or plasma screen.the card is ok.

you need to have RCA cables to get sound. I use my labtop the same way. VGA cable is only for the picture RCA cables are for sounds. you can by them anywhere.

if you have your tv connected to your pc with a vga cable, you will not get sound, since the vga does not carry sounds, only pictures. to change the settings on your pc to make full you will have to change your resolution size on your pc in your control panel

There is an adapter that plugs into you VGA port, and turns it into s video and RCA outputs.

I found one online for less than $4. Here is the link:

Hope this helps!

VGA cable doesn't carry any audio: use your audio output from PC into TV audio Input (standard RCA).
You need to configure your Display Properties to manage TV screen to get an effective connection.
Either you have a generic Video Grafic Driver add on (I'm using Intel Graphic accelerator) on your display properties either you are using a specific (NVIDIA) driver for your video card.
To check go to CP/ Display, settings Tab and in advanced you should be able to check your choice (if you don't want to go to user manual.
You can also (in CP/ Display, Settings tab configure TV as a monitor and select your option accordingly: use screen resolution on screen # 2 not over native resolution of your VIZIO screen (1080 x 960?) and be sure to use all the parameters as TV can accept.
As soon as TV is configured as per resolution and refresh etc..
check the presentation function on your PC: it's normally a FN key showing a screen icon on key top (on my Acer travelmate is FN + F5) on aspire may be it's FN + F4.
This function key will circle between: PC mail screen -> External screen (as you configured on Display settings) -> both screen.
