[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1285198, member: 24160"] [B]ddrfire:[/B] The 40": Manual specifically states it does not support a PC through it's HDMI ports. If it were me, I'd still try it. Since I'm spending your money - use the VGA port. You need a DVI to VGA adapter and a VGA cable - [URL="http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10419&cs_id=1041903&p_id=2396&seq=1&format=4#feedback"]adapter[/URL] - [URL="http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10201&cs_id=1020102"]cable[/URL]. For audio, you need a 3.5mm stereo mini-plug cable - [URL="http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10218&cs_id=1021802"]link[/URL]. They both get plugged into the number 8 inputs shown on page 5 of the manual. The 50": Once again, Manual specifically states their HDMI is not compatible with a PC. You'll need exactly the same adapter/cables - see page 12 in the manual - plug in to numbers 9 & 10. You should be all set for under $10 or get two of each and leave them attached to each TV.
