Hook up Computer to TV
I would like to be able to watch the instant movies I get from NetFlix on my TV. I know that I can hook my grahics card to my TV but I am not sure what cables I can use?? The grapics card has DVI output and my TV has RCA (the three colors) or S (its a small round one with maybe 5 holes)

I have a GE Force 9400 GT Graphics Card
using Windows 7 64 bit

If those are the only connectors on the computer and TV then you will need something more than just a cable. You would need some type of converter box or a new video card. Are the three RCA jacks on the TV yellow, red and white or red, green and blue? Do you know the brand and model number of the graphics card that uses the nVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT chip set?
