wireless hookup?
I was wondering what the next step I need to do to hook my pc wirelessly to my tv? I have a dual core hard drive with windows vista. Also have a wireless router(a 2-wire gateway from bell not hooked up yet). My tv is 10 years old. Thaks in advance.

Here's a wireless video adapter.

Your TV doesn't connect to your router. A 10 year-old TV isn't going to support any network connectivity.

I'm still a little fuzzy? I know my tv doesn't hook to router. So i just have to purchase a new tv(obviously) and a wireless video adapter? Hook everything up and I can start watching from my pc on my tv? The wireless router I have now, does it need to be installed?

You're confusing network and video technologies. If you want to connect your computer to your TV, you do that with video and audio connections. The network connection is to the computer, not the TV. Buying a new TV doesn't change that.
