Yeah I don't think that cross really matters. It probably have them, but check your TV for HDMI ports.
my tv has hdmi. But the computer doesn't.

Yeah that's fine, all you need is something that can connect to your DVI-I ports, and then plug into your TV's HDMI ports.

Linky? Preferably Target or Walmart.

Sure give me a sec I gotta dig around  :panda:

Should I use the top or bottom one?

The top VGA one is for your motherboard, so no, don't use that.


These are the other things.

There also seems to be a s video.

Yeah those are all things for your motherboard(USB, Audio, Internet, keyboard, mouse etc)

So the bottom one?
Yeah the bottom two DVI-I ports are from your graphics card. I can only find DVI cables, and i'm not sure if they work for DVI-I. I'm hoping someone with a little more knowledge about this stuff pops in to help us ;-;

There also seems to be a s video.
I don't think there are any converters for s video to hdmi. I really don't know what s video is anyways

Doesn't have to be hdmi. I just want a display. Lol

Well if you want to use your HDTV as a monitor you'll need some sort of HDMI connector. Unless svideo can do that without one? I dunno

I just want to see it. This is incredibly annoying. This is why I like xbox. Lol
