TV Out

JJ

I recently bought a TV Out kit so I could hook up my computer to my TV. I wasn't exactly sure how I'd hook it up though but I thought I'd take a chance. I have the kit now which look like this:

and I know how I'd hook it up to my TV but I'm not sure where I hook it up to my computer. I have a Dell Dimension 3000. Would I be able to use a TV Out kit with my computer?

To use that kit that you bought your computer would have to have an S video out port.
Unfortunately according to this , your computer does not have one of those.

And even more unfortunate , according to the spec in that review , your computer does not have an AGP or PCI-e slot , so you cant add a graphics card that does have one of those.

So in order for you to hook that computer up to a TV , you will need a VGA to scart kit/cable. Like this ,

Thanks! I should come on here before I go buying accessories I'm not sure of for my computer.
