VGA to HDMI
« on: Dec 12, 2011 at 09:14 AM »
Guys help me out on this one.

Setup:

Desktop Computer
Sammy LED TV

What I want is to use the TV as external monitor of the desktop computer. Problem is: TV does not have PC Input (VGA Input). HDMI lang and standard video inputs na yellow cable. Desktop computer does not have HDMI or DVI.

Is there a direct VGA TO HDMI cable? Where can I get one? How much? What about quality?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there is no VGA to HDMI cable because VGA is analog while HDMI is digital.

+1 ako sa suggestion ni louie1, upgrade ng video card with hdmi or dvi output.  kung dvi, you need an adaptor to make it work.  ganun ngaun set up ko, so far ok naman and ung quality ng output ok most especially pag HD ung movie.
