If the LCD monitor dosen't have RCA's or digital in then you're SOL.

Also you need an inverter to run the monitor.

Best Buy sells a box for $99 that lets you turn any PC monitor into a tv. It accepts Cable TV as well as RCA jacks. Sorry I can't remember the name of it but they should be able to help you at Best Buy.

Go to there website and they can tell you what stores carry it in stock

The converter that TDF said and an inverter for power may be your cheapest solution.

Mike - very different systems Computer -v- Conventional TV. Aspect ratios are different and resolution rates are significantly different. What kind of TV do you have there now? And is it currently connected to a DVD?
