Anyone got any advice on this:
I have decided to upgrade my LCD monitor to a Philips LCD Tv with a pc input (DVi) the problem is I have not got the DVi connection in the back of the pc, I have bought an adapter which you plug the DVi cable into and then that end then becomes a VGA plug (you then use the monitor jack and you should get a signal. In theory this should work...
but when you hit the av button on the tv and select pc, up comes the message no pc input. what am I doing wrong? any ideas are welcome.
