Will this work with an old destop computer connected to a new LED TV? I want to use the TV screen as a TV and as a computer monitor.

As long as your TV has a standard VGA input, this cable will work very nicely for you.

I used mine connected to a small TV in my kitchen. I don't know about a computer monitor.

I had a computer man hook up my pc to the TV. It works great. I had him do it as I am the worst electronic person in the galaxy. I wish I could help you more. I am not sure about laptop.

I do not know about that, it should work, but there is also a DVI-D connection on the back of the monitor as well.

I tested this by pulling the power cord from the back while it is tied into my computer via DVI connection, waited a moment and then plugged it back in. It came back on to the same input to what I was viewing on the computer screen. So I would say it will do what you want based on this.Good Luck

That's a good question, I'm not too sure on that. My guess would say that it would work with computer monitors just as long as it had a USB port on the back of the monitor to power the lights.

Cant figure out why it would. this device was designed to adapt VGA (computer video) to composite or sometimes called component video. In simpler terms computer to TV. I beleive what you are looking for is a TV tuner card to install inside your computer. BUT it does the job that it was intended to, however, though the resolution is good enough for watching movies using an old TV. for computer tasks (reading is still not there yet and probably will never be) as the new screens available are VGA,HDMI and usually composite ready. Our old TV's are dinosaurs. just giving you the info I know.

It works great, I have an older tv in my motor home. Following the directions I just pluged in the audio, VGA and the USB into my Dell laptop and ran the 3 RCA connectors to the tv. Your VGA output froom your PC should not need anything eles.

It should work. I assume that you want both the computer and the TV connected to the projector. You need 3 male-male VGA cables, one from TV to switch; one from computer to switch, and one from switch to projector.

If you have the VGA connection on your TV it will work. It probably would be best to compare the computer VGA connection to the TV connection because they would have to be the same for the cable to work.

I used this device for (2) computers, each computer had a DVI and a VGA and was using those ports for dual monitors. This device allowed me to switch between the two computers on both monitors for each. Based on that, I believe if you used the DVI on one channel, and then the VGA on the other channel, that this would work. That being said, you may be better off just getting a DVI-VGA adapter and using a cheap switch.

This will basically work with anything. If your computer's hdmi or video output works with a flat screen TV, it should also work on this. However, the build quality of this screen is crap. If you need and hdmi screen this is the way to go. Look at an asus portable screen if hdmi output is not important.

I don't see why not, I use it on several different monitors, TVs too. If it has a DVI port it should work.

more than likely, NO... it was purchased specifically for an old dell desktop... it is NOT a usb connection for one thing.. most new pc's only have usb connections... this is a parallel port connection. But, for my purposes which was to replace a monitor that had crapped out... it worked great!

No. Most older TV's have a standard AV input (red, white and sometimes yellow), so this DVI to HDMI converter will not work. You are looking for an HDMI to AVI connector. Also, look out for converters that are AVI to HDMI... not necessarily the same thing. You are looking for something like this http://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-Composite-S-Video-Converter-DA-HDRC/dp/B009TC9T7K/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_1_1

I don't think this will work with all computers. I have a 7-yr old Dell with a DVI tmonitor port - even with the DVI to HDMI adapter that came with the computer I'm not getting a signal. Also, so far it is not working with my Acer Chromebook either.
