    Question for the electronic gurus

    If I wanted to use my Lap Top as a monitor for my Playstation 2, what kind of connector would i need? would an RCA-S Video work? what about an RCA-VGA adapter?

    If the RCA-VGA works, where would i go about getting that adapter?

    If the RCA-S Video works, is there some special setting i have to go to?

    any help is great
    Thanks,
    JC

          Your laptop has to have video IN. Most dont have this so you are proboly SOL. Otherwise you will proly just need the standard RCA plugs and an Headset jeck adapter for the audio. All depends on the specific config of the laptop.

          So far as just running it to a standard monitor they do make a VGA adapter specificaly for PS2 I wouldent know anything about that though.... I would NEVER sneak my PS2 into work
