    I am about to recieve my new Alienware m15x. I will be using this for DJing with videos using the program virtual DJ. The problem i have is the club only has s video or component inputs for videos. I ordered the Hdmi to Dvi adapter and was wondering if i now order a dvi to component adapter if that will work and effect any resolution problems. I also found a HDMI to component box its a little more expensive than the other way. Please let me know what you guys think. Its great i found this website.
