A nicer monitor
Accessing a computer from a TV simply means that the TV is acting as the monitor for the computer. This is very useful when viewing downloaded movies or other media that can be enjoyed on a larger screen than the monitor.
Instructions
Accessing the Computer Using the TV
1. VGA (blue) and DVI (white)
Connect the VGA or DVI cable to the TV.
The TV may only have either a VGA or a DVI input. The DVI input is preferable because it is a digital connection (VGA is analog) that has a higher-resolution capacity, which means it will be able to deliver a cleaner picture.
2. Connect the other end of the VGA or DVI cable to the computer.
The computer may have both the VGA and DVI ports. If possible, go with the DVI port.
3. 1/4-inch to RCA audio Y-Cable
Connect the audio cable to the RCA ports of the TV.
Make sure to connect into the same input as the VGA or DVI input.
4. Turn on the TV and the computer.
5. Change the input on the TV to the VGA/DVI input used.
