Thread: Buster - video help please

I have an NVIDIA GeForce2 MX card which supports two monitors, but I'm having trouble setting it up.

There are two outputs from my card - VGA and S-video. I have a second monitor, but it doesn't take S-Video. I ran the S-video into my Sony Wega TV, but the picture looks like ass.

Do I need some kind of wicked adapter to hook the S-video into my second monitor?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I think you can get an S-v to VGA adapter to address your problem like from http://www.svideo.com/video2vga.html .
Google for other deals and be sure to check OS compatibility.

The search for the wicked S-video to VGA adapter begins.

Thanks man!

There's more well-greased asses on Capital Hill then there are on Cinemax.

I got a dual VGA monitor card and it works great, for using 2 monitors. It will also do S video, (as a 3rd monitor) but thats just for looking at finished edited movies on a TV. Good luck.

wow, that avatar is, um, weird.

Cool. I'm just hoping that the S-video converts to VGA. I don't see why it shouldn't. I'm off to Geek Central - Radio Shack!
