Ge Force4 MX440 TV Out

Im running a Ge Force4 MX440 with TV Out.

I opened the box today to find 2 wires.

There is a black wire, and a wire with yellow ends. One end on one side, and 2 yellow ends on the other. Im presuming they are to go into 2 different pieces of hardwarem such as a camcorder or something.

Can anyone enlighten me on what these wires are for by any chance? Ive looked thru the manual and its too complicated for me and doesnt give enough info. I would like to hook the TV up to the PC so would these wires enable me to do this?

Sorry this is a little wide ranging but I thought Id ask anyway.

Thanx.

 

They plug in to a camcorder or VCR, or your TV if you have SP-DIF.
One wire is the SP-DIF out from the video card, the other wire is a converter from SP-DIF to RCA.
If your TV doesn't have SP-DIF inputs, then use the converter, and run the wires to the RCA inputs on the VCR, select "Line in" on the VCR's source menu.

 

hi reboot, thanx for the reply.

Ive finally got the tower and the tv connected. yey! A 28" widescreen monitor after a bit of help from you and a friend.

Although the quality isnt as good as it is on the monitor it'll do fine when I just wanna lie in bed and use the PC.

Thanx very much.

No seriously I bet that would be cool for playing DVD's (if you have a dvd-rom) just lay back and enjoy.

Bubba is now wishing he had TV-Out

Cool

Nothing like playing your fave fragger on a 28 ".
I have a 32 ", and quality isn't as good, but it's a blast to play games, and DVD is superb.
Picked up a wireless booster, hooked the KB/mouse into it, and now can sit anywhere in the house and manipulate the computer. I only have to get up to change disks

 

Already got em. , as well as the DVD-ROM, but got the DVD Player for that.
