NOTE:

Video and audio cables for connecting your computer to a TV or other audio

device may not be included with your computer. Cables and TV/digital audio
adapter cables are available for purchase from Dell.

Your computer has an S-video TV-out connector that, together with a
standard S-video cable, a composite video adapter cable, or a component
video adapter cable (available from Dell), enable you to connect the
computer to a TV.

Your TV has either an S-video input connector, a composite video-input
connector, or a component video-input connector. Depending on what type
of connector is available on your TV, you can use a commercially available
