Hooking a 6600GT up to an HDTV

Post by Captain tycho »

Pretty much what the title says. I would like to hook my comp into my HDTV, but have no idea how to go about it. I have the cables for it (S-video, Pr/Cr, Pb/Cb, Y, and composite, they're labeled). Do I simply plug the cable the S-video, etc, run into into the back of my comp and hook the S-video/others up to the TV?

Since your 6600's TV-out is (I assume) S-Video, you'll want to run an S-Video cable from the TV-out port on your 6600 to the S-Video in jack on your HDTV. Then you just have to set it up to output to the TV, and you're all set.

Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape-shifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil,
but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow
was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...
