What kind of cable do i need for sound when connecting my laptop to my tv...?

Question

I am using a s video cable. How much does this cable usually cost. I went to radio shack and the lady told me i needed a converter box, which would be costly. I heard that you can use a certain cable. Thanks

Answer 1

Depends on the TV.

If your TV has a S-video connector or video in you don't need a converter box.  So what does it have?

Your laptop has a monitor out. Is that what you were going to use or does it have something else?
