Can I connect my monitor to my TV?

[Burnst]

I am trying to connect my monitor to my TV - is this possible? My monitor has a DVI port and TV has HDMI. Will this work or do I have to somehow connect the TV to the pc, the pc doesn't have a DVI port.

The ports on the monitor are for signal in, short answer NO. You would have to connect the TV to a port on your GPU/ PC which are output ports.

Thanks for that - one more question if you don't mind - would HDMI on the TV to VGA on the pc work?

I have not seen an adapter that way.

You could try something like this :-

but I've never used one so I can't say how good or bad it would be.

There's a HDMI-DVI-VGA adaptor... I use one.
