Recently I have had someone to donate to us an older laptop with windows 95 operating system on it. I don't have any access to a computer projector to view the race management software on. We have several large 36" t.v.'s at our desposal. Do any of you out there know if it is possible to hook your computer to a t.v. to view the program?  Open to any suggestions!!! thanks, GILLS |

Does your Lap Top have a video out port? If so, you can buy a special cable and use a TV as your monitor.

PINEWOOD PERFORMANCE,
I believe that it does, our pack leader has it, I will have to check and see. What kind of cable do I need?
Would there be any difference in the resolution of the computer video output and the resolution of the t.v.?

I'd make a call to the local computer shop, It's over my head at this point.

They are relatively cheap last time I looked, $100 or so. AITECH used to make them. Should be able to get them from local Comp USA or Best Buy. Easy to setup as well. |
