I didn't mean just ask JTT - Try taking the thing in and getting them to get it working! If I know electrical store salesmen they will love a challenge:-) And I do know that there are retailers in Ireland - I was asking if you had Comet or Currys. On reflection Dixons is probably better though... Hmmm.

It is not something unusual provided that what you are trying to do is use the laptops TV out S-video. Should work a treat if you just plug it strait into an s-vid input on the TV. I guess that is not an option for you from what you are saying though so what you need is an s-vid to scart lead or adapter. Should be no problem provided you get the right s-vid connectors.

Now as to the audio leads...

Are you going to use the PC speakers or plug the sound out into the TV as well? If the latter what you may be better with is a scart to s-video and 2xaudio leads with an adapter to plug the 2xaudio leads ito the speaker or output mini stereo jack of your sound board.

Make double sure that the lead you get has the correct connections ie 'in' rather than 'out' or it has both in and out connections for auio and video. Not simple is it? As I said take the laptop into a store where they sell TVs and leads and get them to prove it works before you buy it! At least they will be able to see what type of TV out you have.

Hope this helps:-)
