Hello, I have a HP Pavilion Dv5-1160US on Vista with HDMI or VGA connection; would like to use my Sony Tv (CRT - Only analog connection). I have tried VGA to RCA cables and HDMI to RCA (Yellow Red White cables) but no luck.
Please help anyone

The reason cables don't work is because the signals are NOT the same. You can't just connect them up and expect anything to work.

You must by a converter box - either VGA to composite video converter box or a HDMI to composite video converter box. The former is cheaper. Which type you choose to buy is up to you. Be sure to read the reviews.
