My Dell came with nvidia graphics card GeForce 6800LE. The card has
an s-video type output. Question: Is this a regular s-video output or
it's a special output that can actually support component output.
Since my EOM card did not come with any cables, I need to purchase a
cable S-video to component - I've read that such cables exist but
cannot find them anywhere. ATi cards have a special adaptor for this
purpose, but it does not work with Nvidia cards. To get paid:
- I need a definitive answer that the s-video output on the nvidia
cards is special type and can in fact output without signal
degredation to component.
- place where I can buy a cable that would do the above

hi,

s-video output has a standard interface.
It can be connected to analog display through a standard 4 pin DIN
s-video connector.
However there is another type of connector with 7 pins.

U can buy 4-pin DIN s-video connector from any electronic gadget store
or u can buy it online.

s-video doesn't carry audio signal.U have to use another cable to connect audio.
Hope this will help u

regards
