No need. HDMI is another plug and has nothing to do with SCART.
What do you need to connect your vga PC to a HDMI tv a converter or an adapter?
Many modern televisions have analog inputs as well as the digital HDMI input. It is worth checking the manual to see if the television supports RGB inputs with separate horizontal and vertical sync signals. If the television has an RGBHV input, the VGA signal may well work through it.If the television only has HDMI inputs, the PC will need a DVI display output. This is a digital signal format that is compatible with HDMI. A DVI to HDMI lead should connect the two without problems. Note that HDMI also carries audio on the same cable but DVI does not. To connect the audio, a separate lead will be needed to connect to the analog input that is normally linked with at least one HDMI input. Once again, check the manual to see if one of the inputs has a selectable analog audio input.DVI outputs can be obtained as expansion cards for desktop PCs and as USB devices for use with laptops.Some newer PCs actually have HDMI connectors built in. Laptops sometimes have them fitted to save space on connectors. If this is the case, a single HDMI lead is likely to carry both video and audio signals.
Can you connect your laptop to your tv with a HDMI lead?
Yes, you can in some cases. If your laptop has an HDMI output, a single HDMI lead is all that you will need. Most laptops with an HDMI output also include sound on the connectors but there are some that don't. If your laptop has a DVI connector, a DVI to HDMI lead will work but note that there is never any sound on a DVI connector. If you need to run sound separately, use an analog audio lead. Most televisions have a separate audio input linked to at least one HDMI input that will provide for a separate audio feed.

How do you connect my Lenovo thinkpad to my samsung lcd?
There are a number of ways to connect a computer to a television. The best method depends on the connections available on the computer and the television and as these aren't mentioned in the question, here are two or three methods to try. Each assumes that the television is an HD model. 1 If the computer has a DVI output, connect a DVI to HDMI lead from the computer to to a spare HDMI input to the television. Also connect a 3.5mm jack connector to the audio output and to the audio connector that should be linked to the HDMI input. Using the television set up menu, specify that the audio for that HDMI input should be external to accept the signal from the 3.5mm connector rather than the HDMI cable. 2 If the computer has an HDMI output, a simple HDMI connecting cable should work without a problem. 3 If the computer has a VGA output, look for either a VGA connection of the television or a component input that has red, green and blue RCA (phono) connectors and two that are marked as "sync". An appropriate VGA to RCA lead should work in this instance but you will need to check the manual to ensure that the television can accept RGBHV signals. 4 Finally, if the television does not have a VGA input and the computer has nothing else other than a VGA input, consider buying a VGA to HDMI converter. It will cost from $30 upwards and are available from some electronics stores or from a number of on line suppliers.
