well,im thinking it might not be quite long enough..honestly.my old laptop was set up like yours and so iused this cord for sound and another I had (vga) for pic.I have a newer computer now and was hoping it would work on this hp,but it has no vga port sadly:( Its a really good cord if you have the right laptop.I hope this helps.I measured the sound part from the vga part on the cord and its aprox 14 in so if you think it will be able to be stretched that far from your vga port and headphone plug then you got it..Good Luck.

the head phone plug is only 7-8 inches long, it will work for the sound and picture. it didn't work for me do to my vga plug is on 1 side and my head phone plug is on the other side, it wasn't long enough, so i had to use the vga for picture and i had a single cable for the mini plug for the sound. but for the money the picture on my lg hd plasma tv looks great when i use it. this is coming from someone that uses audioquest, very expensive cables on the rest of my system. hope this helps. john schmidt

All the cords are included with the monitors and will allow for connection with the headphone jack on most laptops or the audio out jack on desktops. In the rare instance that you would need to adapt to an RCA audio (red/white) connection, there are inexpensive adapters available for that purpose.

RCA and VGA are not compatible. This cable will not do what you want. You will need a converter box (Sabrent makes one for example)

No, this won't work for you (the ports are reversed from what you want: your laptop must have an HDMI port, and your monitor must have VGA port).

Yes, a VGA to RCA adapter like this one should work for you - Monoprice VGA to RCA

Yes, it will work for you. Please make sure your Dell laptop has a VGA port and your TV has a HDMI port.

you don't; vga doesn't carry audio. it's not like hdmi. does your monitor have built-in speakers? if so, then there will be a line-in (aka auxiliary, 3.5mm, 1/8", etc.) input which looks exactly like a headphone jack, except that sound goes into it instead of out of it. in that case, you'll need an rca to 3.5mm cable or adapter. if your monitor doesn't have speakers, then just route your rca cables to your sound system. i hope that helps.

You also need a headphone to RCA cable if you want sound to go from computer to converter. From converter to tv you need an hdmi cable. If you are doing w lap top check if lap top has an hdmi out. Most newer ones do. Then all you need is an hdmi cable and this converter is not needed.

If your monitor has rca in then yes. If you mean to convert rca to vga, this does the exact opposite (but you probably meant vga to rca)

It didn't work to connect my hdmi pc to my vga monitor. I had to buy HDMI Input to VGA Adapter Converter For PC Laptop NoteBook HD DVD. Also, it wouldn't work from my old vga pc to a hdmi tv.

If your laptop has an HDMI out port, then yes. You can connect this TV just like any HD component and both audio and video will work. This TV can also see a media server (Windows media player can do this) that is on the same network as the laptop if you are looking to stream movies or music. If not you will need to buy a VGA to HDMI adapter, preferably one that has audio jacks included that connect to your headphones port. That is a fairly cumbersome method but can be done.

Should be all you need if I'm understanding your application correctly and as you can see, the audio speaker cable is included. Most all Laptops and LCD/LED TV's have VGA connectors these days. However, if I had a HDMI connector on both the Laptop and the TV, I would order a HDMI cable instead.

It is made to connect a VGA port from a laptop to a VGA port on a monitor or TV. However, it is not shielded enough. You will have issues with using the audio cable and horrible sounds.

As far as i'm aware yes the cable is bi-directional and if you connect it to a DVI port you can then connect that to HDMI TV but remember you will still not get sound through HDMI in that setup unless your laptop SPECIFICALLY supports sound out through DVI (not all do.)

VGA does not transfer the sound. It only sends a video signal. To transfer the sound, you will need a separate Headphone (computer) to RCA (TV Audio) cable.

You will need to connect audio between the laptop and whatever amp/speakers you require (even your laptop speakers might be usable.) In any case, you may likely need to change your audio settings on the laptop so HDMI audio is not in use. There may be some audio breakout boxes for HDMI cables, but for the price and addtional hardware involved, its not worth it. I've never used one.

As long as your screen has a VGA input then yes. The red and white are for audio, what I did was use an adapter to make them into an 1/8" headphone jack. Allied me to plug in headphones or computer speakers. Just an FYI these are NOT premium, there is no shielding and a lot of crosstalk. Don't expect a real nice picture, but they do get the job done if your running a LAN party on a budget like me.
