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.
If one is hoping to use an LCD TV as a computer monitor what specs are important?
There is little difference between LCD TVs and computer monitors. There are only two things that are important when choosing an LCD TV to use a computer monitor.First, make sure the native resolution of the TV is suitable for the computer. Most modern computers can output 16 : 9 format displays, which the TV is likely to be. If the PC doesn't have a widescreen display, a new display card will fix the problem.Second, make sure the TV has a VGA input if the PC is VGA output. If the computer has a DVI output, then a simple DVI-HDMI adapter cable will connect to the HDMI input of the LCD TV. Note that audio will not be embedded in the signal, so a separate audio input will be needed in addition to the HDMI input. Once again, if the PC doesn't have a DVI output, a new video card can be installed that does have the right output.Most TVs will scale a computer image to fit the screen if the PC resolution doesn't match the TV's native resolution but you must be aware that the quality of the image will be compromsied, especially small text.
