I have a lcd monitor with vga and dvi-d inputs.How do I connect my normal cable to it.
Computer monitors do not work with TV signals, unless you have HDMI out which just needs an HDMI to DVI adaptor.
If you want to use your LCD monitor as a TV without adding any extra hardware, these are the requirements: - The LCD monitor must be HDCP-compliant, so it can display encrypted high-definition TV content. - You must have a digital HD cable box (or satellite or Fios box). Digital HD cable boxes have either a DVI or HDMI output and can be directly connected to an HDCP-compliant monitor. Note that a regular standard-definition cable box do NOT have DVI or HDMI ports. You must make sure you have a digital HD cable box. - You will need to hook up a separate set of speakers to the cable box to get sound, if the monitor doesn't have any speakers. Hope this helps.
