I have an old Dell Lattitude D630 laptop. Is there a way to come out of the VGA jack on the back of my laptop and somehow end up with composite or S v ideo out? I tried an adapter that my son said he had used to do this in the past. It plugs into the RGB jack in the back and it has two short cables o ut of it. One has an RCA female jack on the end of it and the other has an S video female. I didn't try S but although I can get an image on my compos ite monitor you can see that there is more than one image and it's out of s ync. I tried adjusting the display settings and that seems to put the frequ ency way off. I used to have a video board on an old DOS computer that had an RCA jack on it and it was very handy. Is this still possible to do? I th ink that I read somewhere that anything ten ears older or less should be ab le to support this. I don't know how old my laptop is but i don't think tha t it's over ten years. Thanks, Lenny
