Default RE: Playstation /XBox RC flight simulator

this might be a bit off topic here but there is a easy way to use your Sim on your TV


I have a 46" rear projection HDtv it will display 800x600 and I play many games on it it is not as nice as my monitor wich runs 1280x1024 but its nice to sit on the couch and play/show off LOL


all you need is a pc near the TV ( I have a HTPC I built from old parts I had kicking around) and you need a USB extension cord 12' and a Video card that outputs Svideo then all you do is connect the Svideo cable to the TV then set the tv up as a clone of your main monitor in windows so it displays what your monitor does only at 800x600 insted of 1280x1024 and sit back and play its that easy

note

for the new sims this might not work because of the system specs needed to play them you would need a pretty good HTpc step up or move you main box closer
