It relies upon on the inputs accessible on your television. Many televisions have VGA or DVI-D inputs. additionally, many greater recent desktops have HDMI outputs. i might evaluate your workstation's outputs mutually with your television's inputs and notice if an common cable will do the trick. in case you have already achieved this without good fortune, you are able to verify on line, as many adapters are much less costly and accessible. One occasion may well be a VGA to composite video (RGB) adapter. desktops generally have a VGA out (often happening visual reveal unit cable) and maximum televisions have a composite video enter. you will possibly then additionally in all possibility want a a million/8 plug to RCA audio adapter for the sound. good good fortune.

With a UBC cord, you should find one at any store that sells electronics.
