Cable from PC -> Telly

kev7329 · 2010-06-03 14:33:53

Hi, Can anyone tell me what lead do you need to hook a PC to a telly, as i'd heard someone i know got a lead for streaming from a laptop to a HD Telly, are they the same cables or is it a lot easier with laptops? Thanks for any help.:)

Their is no definite answer kev as it depends on your pc, and it depends on your tv. Could be vga, hdmi, dvi...etc. Post a pic if your not sure.

If your PC has DVI connection, then I have a cable that do it for you. See Advert.

I've found Kenable always has an excellent selection and keen prices, don't be put off by low price cables when it comes to short runs of digital information
