Hello Synquetta,Check the side or back of your TV, if it has "HDMI" then you can connect it.Hope it helps.Erik

No this works the other way around. Look for an HDMI - AV converter...(make sure it has DHCP support)

Any suggestions for connecting my HP Pavilion dv6000 notebook to this TV? I know I can accomplish this through a VGA connection or S-Video connection, but I wanted to keep the connection digital quality. Thanks!

There shouldn't be any trouble connecting to the display through HDMI. Make sure all the settings on your computer are correct and the display mode is set to HDMI. If all else fails, you may have a faulty unit.

Sari, It's best to connect your computer directly to the television with the HDMI cable. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

You need a monitor cable or an HDMI, either will work with the TV but older PC's might not have HDMI ports and newer ones might not have monitor ones.

I have just tried that and it worked. I normally use a HDMI input but my TV comes with a DVI input connector so I tried the DVI input and there was no problem. My suggestion is that you 1) turn off the HDMI splitter and all devices connected to the HDMI splitter, 2) turn on all devices connected to the HDMI splitter and then 3) turn on the HDMI splitter.

No--and when I tried hooking it up to my tv with the cable and the adapter I needed (to fit the particular port on my tv) I get a message that says I can't use it---have not yet worked out what is happening there, but have been using it with the included av cables just fine. I'll do that until I figure out what the problem is with hdmi on this television set....but at least you can get up and running until you get an hdmi cable.

Yes, If you hdtv have audio conector. Or other good option is buy hdmi cable and conect your pc or laptop to your hdtv.

B. Fisher is correct. I mean, you can hook your laptop up to it via HDMI, but you will not be able to get any internet access.

not possible!...only HDTV with HDMI will work although, you still get decent image.

Yes u plug this into your TV's hdmi port....then you must download software to your pc and control the device thru your pc.

I have used this to go from laptop or desktop (windows OS) VGA port on the pc [that has a video card which supports digital output] to an HDMI input port on Televisions, to get video only. I had to use a separate Y audio cable to get sound from the pc to the TV. Using the projector setting on your pc you will see it on the TV, just check the TV for input, my Mother has DynxxTV and sets it to VGA input, my friend he has to put it on HDMI2 another says their TV has a PC input, so check your TV or Monitor manual.

Turn off the computer, plug the HDMI cable into both the computer and the TV, Turn on the computer.If you still have a problem, try testing the cable on something else like a PS3 or Xbox
