Using a TV as your Monitor
#1
<Gwarsbane> cause you need the s-video wire, rf modulator box, rca y splitter 1 male end to 2 female ends, a stereo audio 1/4 jack converter to rca, 2 RCA wire extentions both ends on each of the wires need to be male, long enough coax cable to reach from rf mod box to tv
[01:25] <Gwarsbane> Its not hard, least I didn't find it hard, its just a little pricy, cost me about 45 bucks in the end
[01:25] <Gwarsbane> basically this is what you do...
[01:25] <CowEater|> i have some of that stuff
[01:27] <Gwarsbane> first before you do all this stuff, you will need to see if your video drivers support video out
[01:28] <Gwarsbane> you will have to check on the nvidia site as I don't know anything about their software
[01:28] <Gwarsbane> while the computer is off cause there is no sense in taking a chance, plug in the RF mod box (cause it needs a wall socket for power) then plug one end of the svideo wire into the video card and the other end into the rf mod box
[01:31] <Gwarsbane> then take the stereo audio 1/4 jack converter (with a 1/4 male end and a rca female end) plug the 1/4 end into a spot where you normally plug in your speakers for your computer, then plug the rca y splitter single male end into the female end of the jack converter, then plug in 1 end of each of the RCA extention wires into each of the rca y splitters
[01:31] <Gwarsbane> then plug those ends into the back of the rf mod box
[01:31] <CowEater|> : ( )
[01:33] <Gwarsbane> then take the coax wire (which should have the connectors on each end) and screw it onto the back of the rf mod box, run it to your TV and plug it in. Turn the TV to either channel 3 or 4 (which ever your rf mod box is set for) turn on your computer, tell your video card software to out put it to the TV and then bingo you should have everything up and running
[01:33] <Gwarsbane> total actual time to do all this, 5 to 10 minutes


3VEN at 2am he was able to tell me all that easily : ()
