How to connect Portege M700 to TV using VGA port?

I bought a VGA to S-video/audio adapter and connected it to my VGA port and to the TV.
Nothing happened.
In control panel.... no other display/external display was detected.
The only postings I have come across use a port emulator or something.
I have the Portege M700 preinstalled with Vista Business tablet.
Any ideas would be most welcome.
Thanks

Thanks for answering.
I used an adapter which plugs into the VGA port on my M700 and allows either audio/display or S-video to connect to it. That is what I used, trying to connect via S-video or scart... and I'm afraid it did not work for me ;-(
It is a VGA to S-video/audio convertor.
Here is thye ebay link to the adapter I bought for this:

I may be doing something stoopid... I hope I am but it worries me that if it works for you, there must be something wrong with my notebook :-(
The graphics adapter shows "single display" and the multiple display option is not available there.
I am confused as my old laptop used to work just fine.
I am wondering if there is something I need to activate, but there is nothing in the bios setup or control panel.
I just physically connected them and then clicked on the "connect to external display" as well as checking the graphics options.
Perhaps the cable is the wrong one ?

Also, when I use FN + F5, nothing happens. No windows come up.

  • Connecting Portege Z10t to projector using VGA

    Hi there.
    I'm having an issue connecting the Portege Z10t to a projector via VGA.
    Its fine via HDMI.
    The resolution changes on the screen to something like a 4:3 ratio.
    It then comes up on the projector, stays for 10 seconds or so then bombs out.
    I've tried multiple resolutions but no joy. We're running windows 8.1
    I've tried a few different z10t and different projectors. Other laptops running windows 8.1 are fine, it only seems to be with the z10t.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance

    First of all it would be interesting to know what resolution youve chosen for internal and external display.
    The Portege Z10T series was equipped with different displays but as far as I know the max supported resolution for all displays should be: 1920 x 1080 px
    If you use the extended desktop, both displays (internal + projector) could use different resolution but if you use the option clone displays then the resolution has to be the same on internal as well as on external display (projector).

  • How to connect macbook to sony bravia using hd15 port

    Im trying to hook up my white macbook into my sony tv. the manual says to use a hd15-hd15 cable. what do i need?
    please help!

    IF your white MB has a miniDVI output, one of these should do the trick...

    Of course, you will also need a 3.5 to L/R audio cable for sound and you will need a VGA cable.
    Why not use an HDMI port if you have free one? Better picture.

  • How to connect laptop to router by using udp receiver

    I try to communicate between computer and laptop via router. Computer connect to router by wire. laptop have Wireless Mini Card. I open udp receiver to connect to router. How to connect to router ? what is net address number ? and what is port number ? how to find them ?

    You can only connect to a router port if the router is running a service that
    Allows you to do so. What kind of connections are you trying to do?
    The net address is the ip address in u32.
    The port is determined by the service you want to access.
    What do you actually want to do with all this?
    We need much more info. Router model?

  • How to connect a cinema display and a VGA monitor to mac mini

    I bought a Macmini and want to connect to a cnema display and to a monitor that uses VGA connection. I also bought a MiniDisplayPort to VGA adapter but the MacMini only has ONE Minidisplay port.  I thought this would be more straitforward....

    I'm unsure of the issue, the Mini has both mDP and HDMI outputs, right? If so, the mDP for the Cinema Display an a HDMI to VGA adapter for the 2nd monitor.

  • How to connect many devices with only one FW800 port in iMac?

    Hi,
    I am upgrading to a new Intel iMac from a 2004 vintage Dual2.0GHz PowerMac. I currently have 8x d2 Quadra drives chained by FW800, and 2x Iomega drives connected vis FW400 hub which also connects HD cams.
    My questions is that with only one FW800 port in iMac, I think my devices connectivity is the following?
    (1) Get a FW 800 hub (I can only find 2 port ones at the Apple store and BestBuy)
    (2) Connect the d2 Quadras to one port of the FW800 hub
    (3) Get a FW 800 to FW 400 cable
    (4) Connect my 6 port FW400 hub to the 2nd port of the FW800 hub
    Thanks for reviewing this solution, and I would also appreciate other suggestions or hear about your experiences if you have a similar set-up.
    Will

    In addition to your listed considerations, you should consider the following.
    Many storage needs do not required FireWire 800 speed. For example, USB 2.0 works fine for your Time Machine backup drive. If you are just storing user data such as your iPhoto or iTunes media files, USB 2.0 is more than fast enough. So, as much as possible, if any of those external drives have USB 2.0 connections and the data storage does not need FireWire 800 speed, offload as much as possible to USB 2.0. I used to be a +FireWire snob+, but since getting an Intel iMac, I find that USB 2.0 works quite well for most data storage purposes.
    There are new hard drives that are power efficient and as large as 2TB. Consolidate your data storage needs onto a smaller number of very large drives, partitioned as needed. This will make your setup more reliable (smaller number drives), and save reduce power consumption. If any of your current externals are SATA, you can probably replace the existing drive with an extra large one.
    So, I think you setup should be, extra large FireWire 800 drive connected to the FireWire 800 port directly. Using a 9-pin to 6-pin cable, connect the FireWire 400 hub. Connect any non-storage FireWire 400 devices there. Do some data transfer testing to make sure having the 400 hub there on the chain does not cause the 800 connection to slow down.
    Connect other drives as needed using USB 2.0, existing or new. Retire the smaller of your external drives.

  • How can i write a vi in using parallel port for digital inputs

    Dear all,
    i am a beginner user of LabVIEW and i want to write a vi in using parallel port for digital I/O. After reading the article "Using the Parallel Port in LabVIEW
    " and download the parallel.zip, i know how to write the vi for output, but i still don't know how to write the input one.i've try to use a Inport.vi to test, but nothing change when i set pin2-9 to high. (my computer:win2K & LabVIEW 6.1)
    Can anybody teach me how to write it?
    Can anyone write the vi for me too?
    Thanks all!
    p.s.i've already install the "accessHW.exe"

    Are you using VISA or the accessHW VIs? You may need to goto the bios and set the parallel port to run in spp mode or standard mode. This is the simpliest configuration and where you should start.
    As far as writing the VI goes, just copy the diagram out of the tutorial you mentioned.

    If it fails for your account and not for another, with the same settings on your phone, then the problem is with your account. If you or your IT department can't correct it, it may be corrupt. Delete the account from the Exchange server entirely and re-create it.

  • What cables do I need to connect MacBook Pro to the TV VGA port

    Nov 6, 2014 7:01 PM
    Hi,
    The HDMI port on my Maxent tv is not working.  I am hoping to connect my MacBook Pro to the TV via the VGA port on the TV to watch Netflix and movies.  What cables do I need that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)?  And will that cable support audio or will I need a separate audio cable?
    Thanks-
    Sheri
    OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

    Hey Sheri Lynn,
    Thanks for the question. Our online store has a helpful tool that should guide you through the process of picking the best adapter for your MacBook model. You can check it out here:
    Get help choosing Mac video adapters - Apple Store (U.S.)
    http://store.apple.com/us/mac/mac-accessories/cables/cable-chooser#!
    If you are connecting via VGA you will need a separate audio cable if your TV supports it.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Connecting G4 Sawtooth to HDTV Without VGA Port

    My new TV does not have a VGA port, but I'd like to hook my G4 up to it for use as a monitor. I've seen several DVI or VGA to Component video adapters online, but do these work? Should I go with a VGA to Composite adapter?

    For audio without HDMI you'll need to use the optical audio output on the Apple TV 2 (ATV2). If your TV or stereo receiver doesn't have an optical INPUT you'll have to get a D-to-A converter box that accepts an optical input and outputs a stereo RCA audio signal (you can find such adapters on the internet, they may run around $30 U.S.). For your TV, make certain that it is an optical INPUT, many TVs only come with optical outputs.
    In any case, you also need to be aware that the ATV2 is designed to work over HDMI and even though it may function using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter there is no absolute guarantee that it will work without issues. First off, you need to make certain that the DVI port on your TV supports HDCP copy protection and it needs to support it well (some DVI devices may say that they support HDCP but not all of those devices are created equal and HDCP can be a "real bag of hurt," it can be very finicky).

  • How to connect nokia 6610 to pc using data cable

    i hav dku-5 connectivity adapter cable and i have installed both driver and pc suite but still i cant connect my nokia 6610 phone to my pc how can i connect it?..

    I believe the DKU-5 cable is no longer supported by the current versions of PCsuite and Ovi Suite. It was replaced by the CA-42. If won;t work if you are trying to use it with the latest version of pcsuite.
    Options are to get hold of a old version of PCsuite or to get the newer cable. There should be an old version of PCsuite on the disc that came ith the phone.
