Orpheus Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 From my understanding, you won't be able to run a VGA to HDMI connection as VGA is an analog signal and HDMI is a digital signal. You could get a VGA to DVI converter/scaler and a DVI to HDMI cable, but for much less money you can upgrade to a top end video card that with a DVI out and the appropriate cable. I'd recommend poking around on AVSForum for more info on using your HD set with a PC. Lots of knowledgable friendly folk over there (as well as the requisite pompous asshats).
