Connecting Your Computer to a TV or Audio Device

NOTE:
Video and audio cables for connecting your computer to a TV or other audio device are not
included with your computer. Cables may be purchased at most consumer electronics stores.
You can use a commercially available S-video cable to connect your computer to the S-video input
on your TV. The audio connector on the front of the computer enables you to connect the
computer to your TV or audio device, using a commercially available audio cable.
NOTE:
See the diagrams at the beginning of each subsection to help you determine which method of
connection you should use.
When you finish connecting the video and audio cables between your computer and your TV, you
must enable your computer to work with the TV. See "Enabling the Display Settings for a TV" on
page 34 to ensure that the computer recognizes and works properly with the TV.
