[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1652445, member: 131855"] I'm sure others will chime in with their ideas but having to use multiple adapters probably has a lot to do with the problem. I'm the king of trying things like this, usually because it uses parts I already have, but it's often a source of frustration. The first thing I would do is to check the TV documentation. I would want to know if there is another option for connecting the TV besides VGA. Read any information on connecting a computer carefully.

The second thing I would try is something like[URL="http://www.walmart.com/ip/28883530?wmlspartner=wlpa&adid=22222222227019475954&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=56100987969&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=88714313049&veh=sem#about"] this[/URL]. This cuts the connection down to one adapter and reduces the complexity and multiplicity of cables during troubleshooting. [/QUOTE]
