HDX16T to a TV input or receiver input

Hi!

My HDX16T has a Nividia GeForce 9600m GT card. On the side is a VGA, Expansion Slot 3, HDMI, USB and 1394 slot.

My Reciever will only accept HDMI when it defaults to HDMI out to the TV, problem is my TV has S Video IN, Component Video In and RCA Video In and NO HDMI.

I am forgetting the reciever and have tried going directly to the TV. I tried a VGA to Component adapter (red, green., Blue) but got no picture. Tried to configure thru Nivida Control Panel and through Display, still no video.

How can I get my laptop to send the video signal to my TV via a S, RCA or Component video input, when all I seem to have is HDMI and VGA out on my laptop.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks
 
I assume the VGA to Component cable was purchased after getting the laptop. Those, much like the VGA to SVID/RCA cables only work with specific video cards. I can't say for sure but I feel pretty safe assuming yours isn't one of the supported ones...

I don't know what you're really trying to display, but about your only option is going to be a VGA to RCA/SVHS converter. These aren't the cheapest things and the quality is quite poor, typically a bit worse than a standard videocard's TV Out.
