Help Required please!!

I have VGA output from my PC and want to if possible connect my PC via HDMi cable (or whichever way possible) to watch footie streams and films.

Handbook only shows via DVI cable though?

Can this be done please guys?

it comes down to what outputs you have on your pc and inputs on your tv determines what cables you can use to connect them together.
the link is to various ways of connecting the two together.

Detailed information on different cable options to match computer sockets and connections on the TV (http://www.pc-tv-connect.co.uk/Cableconnections.html)

There's a VGA to HDMI converter but its expensive compared to other options
