    Hi folks,i am just setting about doing the above and wondering which route to take.
    Just to get a PC to RGB screw in version or is there better options outthere like connecting via a HDMI adapter or connecting it through the 3 pin scart on the back of the LCD?
    I think Ebay just made the decision worse :eek:.
    The RGB connection on the back of the tv is a 15 pin female,thanks.

    Your TV has a VGA port, yah? It'd look something like this. I think that's what you might mean by RGB screw. All you'd need is a VGA cable.

    On the other hand, if your PC doesn't have a HDMI, and your TV has, you can get a DVI to HDMI adapter, assuming your PC has a DVI port (it'd look like this). A HDMI connection would allow for higher quality. If your PC does have DVI, something like this or this would do the trick.

    Thanks,that cleared it up a bit :) i just need the VGA cable then just it had [RGB] beside the connection on the back of the tv,that through me off.
    Then all i was coming up with while searching was DVI connection ends which i don`t have either.
    It`s just a basic desktop,i`m trying to get some use out of it and to get my little one off the laptop :D.
