Nowadays, watching movies from your computer on your television is very easy to accomplish, and many people choose to do it instead of using traditional DVDs. Read along if you need to know how to connect computer to TV.
Connect Computer to TV
1) Determine what kind of outports your computer has. It usually has VGA outports.
2) Determine what kind of video inports your television has. Usually, this will depend on what kind of television you have. Newer television sets will have different and newer kinds of inports.
3) Select the right kind of cable to connect your computer to your television set. The outport of your computer has to match the inport of your television set. If the outport of your computer and the inport of your television set are different, you will need an adapter cable for this. These can be purchased at any computer store.

6) After that, you need to disconnect the monitor of your computer.
7) Position your computer next to your television set while leaving your keyboard and your mouse near your television set.

9) After that, if you needed the audio cables, connect the 3.5mm audio cables to the audio jack of your television set.
10) Next, set your TV to the incoming mode from your computer. You may need to consult your television’s user manual for this.
11) Turn on your computer.
12) The last step is to adjust the screen resolution, if needed. This is important if you want to fully enjoy the viewing quality of your television and computer connection.
