ok, i want to connect a portable crt to my 8800gts as an additional screen. my tv only has scart cable and analogue ariel ports..

can i do this? i have s-video to rgb connector and also i have s-video to av (yellow - video) connector, would either of these do the trick.... i know i could just try but i am at work and am racking my brain before i go home...

i know the quality will be rubish.... its just to watch crappy tv whilst on my rig..

thanks all...
 
The composite (yellow co-ax connector) should work ok, but you'll need to connect the audio with a seperate cable from your sound card.

The S-Video has sound & picture combined.

I find that composite is better than S-Video, but it varies from setup to setup.
