PC to TV

If TV is Non HD then S-Video is the normal way to do it (I have did it since 2001 and Picture is perfect.

If its to watch normal AVI's to a large 1080p TV it then looks crap unless you can get it upscaled using software (I ain't seen anything do it well yet bar possibly them hardware boxes that cost £100's

To answer your OP again without sidelining like other posts, YES.
 
I have an s-video out to an old(ish) CRT TV. Its great for playing movies and iplayer. Not recommended for general computer use though picture isnt that great, but not noticable in movies.

S-VHS = enhanced VHS tape system

S-video - 4 pin yuvC video cable

A S-video connection is fine to output video to a 4:3 CRT TV (the desktop will flicker like mad). If it is to a wide-screen CRT then the aspect ratio will be completely out.

Just a quick update. It has worked rather well and is fine for watching films/the office etc. It took a while to get it to work though. The key was to delete the graphics drivers, set the PC to US and re-install them.

Thanks for the help folks
