Connecting montior to dvd player?

I just got a new pc with a wide screen monitor. My old monitor (only a year) is a 19" LCD and I'd like to be able to use it connected to my standard dvd player in the bedroom. Are there adapters/cables I can get that will allow me to do this? The monitor in question's available connections are a VGA, DVI-D and a single audio in. Thanks.

 

jpblev,

I'm not sure if there is a cable to connect from your computer to the dvd player but why dont u bye a cable that goes from the computer to the TV?

 

Oh. I got that all set up. It's just that I wanted to put my old monitor to use.

 

jblev,

so u wanna connect your old monitor to the tv? or only the dvd player? or you want one monitor going to the tv and another going to dvd player or something?

 

He wants the old lcd monitor to be connected to his dvd player alone for his room. Kinda like using it as a tv.

I think.....


I dont know how to do it though sorry.



EDIT: AsK creaky and/or nephilm. They helped me with monitors.

 

billybob is correct.

 

Okay. Getting a Video to VGA converter that'll do the trick.

 

Glad you got it working.
