What you need is a scart lead Marged. Is your computer near your television. I hope it is otherwise you'll have to watch on your monitor.

No it's not really near the tv Jim - I am just sitting here thinking about getting a LONG lead to the scart socket or moving the furniture. Trouble is, computers are not really elegant, are they? May be better to uninstall and go out and buy a DVD player! Marj > What you need is a scart lead Marged.

Curry's have them for about £70. I doubt your TV picture would be very good with a long Scart lead. Could be a loss of quality. Check first and then get someone to make you the required length if you decide to go ahead. BTW, did you get your CD Writer?
