Quality using normal video cable

**devin99** · 09-02-2004, 10:19 PM

Hello All,

I have a 5.8" Clarion screen in my computer, very clear when watching DVD's or playing PS2, but when I hook up the lap top using normal video cables (3 Cables 1 for Video 2 for audio) the quality is very bad, cannot read anything, is it because of the connection using the normal video cables?

any ideas would be great

Thanks

2 things:

Regular video sucks in general when computers are involved. This is why most people on this site use VGA screens.

If you can't afford a VGA screen (~ $230, http://www.digitalww.com/VGA_TM_700VGA.htm ), make sure that the resolution, etc.. is set to the very minmum and the text size is set reletively high.

Hope this helps,
