    Hi guys, I'm planning to connect my acer aspire 5550 laptop to my old crt tv as a second display. The laptop connection is using vga out and the tv only got rca connection. How am i gonna do it? Is it i need a vga to s-video converter + s-video to rca converter? What settings do i need on the laptop display option?
