Video out question regarding my 9700 Pro

I have a Radeon 9700 Pro and it has the standard VGA connector, a Digital
Video connector, and what looks to be a SVHS connector. I'd like to hook
this up to my big screen TV. Do I need any adaptors or can I simply buy a
SVHS cable and plug it in? Any guidance, best ways, where to get the
widget, etc would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

James

Assuming you are like the rest of us and have no idea
where the manual might be, I will refrain from the obvious
RTFM post. You should be able to download the manual
from the ATI site ( I said should, but am reminded that their
site has disappointed me in the past.)

You might want the manual to be sure you have setup the
video components of your system to have the TV out work
the way you wish it to. Connecting to your big screen would
be the same as any other S-Video device. Just need a cable.
