S-Video port on my Compac Presario V5000 Laptop

Hello.
The S-Video port on my Compac Presario V5000 Laptop seems to have a problem. When I plug the s-video - to - audio/video cord into my s-video port, to plug into my TV, to watch video on the TV, (as a 2nd monitor) the screen is constantly rolling up and down quite fast. I tried new audio/video cords and a new s-video - to - audio/video cord. No change. It must be the s-video port itself. Has anyone had a similar problem, and if so what did you do to correct it? As you can imagine this is quite a pain.
Thank you all.

Hdmi slot compaq presario laptop input output

It seems your laptop doesn't have an HDMI port. You must rather use the vga port and an auxiliary audio cable.

I HAVE TRYED CONNECTING MY HDMI LEAD FROM MY COMPAC LAPTOP TO MY LG TV I AM GETTING PICTURE BUT NO SOUND CAN ANY ONE HELP

You need to connect an audio patch cord between the laptop and the TV. Use the headphone jack on the laptop (3.5 mm M). Check your LG TV manual for the correct audio in on the TV. (Usually it is next to the VGA port if the TV has that PC input.) Computers do not send sound on the HDMI video output.

I hope this helps.

Ethernet port

Try reloading the ethernet drivers from the device manager. Uninstall the drivers then reboot. It will find the hardware and reinstall the drivers. Then update the drivers from HP's support site. If you still have the issues, then it may be a faulty port. Take it in and have it checked out.
