New member Username: MolohovPost Number: 1 Registered: Dec-05 | I have roughly the same dilemma here. I want to convert a S-Video output to a VGA monitor so I can extend my desktop without having to buy a dual-monitor vid card. However, I have not been able to sucessfully find a CABLE that can do this. Does anyone know of one? |

This is becuase there is less information in a S-Video output (in terms of pins) than a VGA requires. Its like turning 9 pins into 15; it's impossible. Hope this helps. |
