If your settings says something like that then you don't have to do anything, just buy the hookup. If it doesn't, however, you should go to www.redoctane.com and hop over to the Pump it Up section, and you will find a converter that looks like a remote control.

EDIT: It's here: http://www.redoctane.com/etv.html

alright well you say your video card has outgoing to tv? is this S-Video or is it the single plug (yellow wire) video?
S-Video looks like the plug to your keyboard, and if not then it looks like an audio port..something you put headphones in
Either way you need a matching port on your TV to transmit video..check RadioShack..I'm sure even WalMart has stuff like that biggrin.gif
As for audio, get a long audio cord to hook up to a stereo system or better speakers if you're lucky..I still have to use my pc speakers since I don't have a cable riiight.gif
As for me I have an S-Video port and when I plug it in to the back of the tv, the layout is something like this:

O(S-Video)
o o
o o o O (RF)
o o o <----------audio input
\/
Video 1 and Video 2 (with audio)

when I have Video 1 plugged in AND my S-Video cable I can't use the S-Video output on my video card, which is a slight problem..just thought I'd give some insight

good luck

if its not Svideo you just need a simple video RCA cable, the yellow on. You plug it into the video card and then you plug it into your TV. Reboot your computer with your TV on and viola, computer on your TV. The cable is like $6 at radio shack.
