How do I output my PC to a TV?

Factual Questions
1

Ok, I have a PC with a NVIDIA GeForce MX420 video card. I want to watch an MPEG on my telivision.

Should I just be able to run a standard RCA cable from the TV-Out jack on the video card to the Video-In jack on the TV/VCR?

Cause it aint working. All I get is a blank screen (I have the right input mode selected on the TV)

Look at Display->Properties->Settings->Advanced->Output Device.

You might have to select “TV” as the output device.

Is that “blank”, or “full of static”? BIG difference!

Ah…that seemed to do the trick…thx

Now if anyone can tell me how to fix the mild interference (does it have to do with refresh rate?) that would be swell.
