VGA to Scart Cable Solutions?

mikewright2009 · 08-13-2009, 09:30 AM

hello i have been reading through threads for some time and i cannot find the answer or a possible solution to my problem.
i bought a vga to scart cable which lets me plug the scart in my television and plug my vga plug into the cable.
it does not display a picture however and there is a loud buzzing noise.
is there any solution how to fix this?
this is a hd ready accoustic 32" television.
thanks in advance
MW.

Make sure that the computer set to output at a resolution and refresh rate that the TV can accept? Check your TV's manual for the specs.

You have to change it in the computer not the TV. Find out what the native resolution of the TV is and set the computer to that using the display setting. Right click on an open area of your desktop, click properties, click settings, then move the "Screen resolution" slider to a resolution the TV can accept. You may also have to adjust the screen refresh rate, which you do in the Advanced>Monitor section of the properties box.
