I need to get my computer's screen display to appear on my TV. How to?

It was suggested that I could do the following (but it didn't work).

1) I have a notebook that's got an S Video jack that I hooked up to the TV's video in.

2) Found my way through the Korean remote control and found Multimedia PC, which shows up on the screen, but is otherwise black.

Something else to try? Different cables and conections? By the way, the TV also has an S Video jack and a half dozen or more in and out jacks.

Thanks.

Maybe (just maybe) this'll work.

Hook the S-video cable up before you turn on your computer.

YOu need to switch the display properties to your TV. Right click on the desktop, select "properties". From there, select the last tab at the top, then select "advanced. This will bring you to the graphics card settings.

From here, look for something to do with "display" and from this panel, you can switch between the TV and your monitor.
