No video card

kuczer1 · 07-15-2008, 03:43 PM

I don't have a video card in my laptop. It is fairly powerful and it's only about 2 years old. Is there anyway i can hook my laptop up to my t.v with some kind of u.s.b attachment?

well your laptop has integrated video. do you know if your laptop has a s-video output? if so then yes, you can connect it to your tv.
