Default What s-video cable to get?
Hey, just wondering if anyone knows what type and where I should get an s-video cable to go from my computer to my tv. It would have to be a fair lenth (30feet maybe?). Hopefully not too expensive.

If there's any other suggestions, let me know. I have an ATI AIW 64mb card.

I noticed that you're in Guelph so maybe try K-W Surplus on Victoria St. in Kitchener. Don't expect high quality, but I know in the past they carried odd cables like that for a cheap price. My only concern is using a cheap cable for a such a long run, but if the price is right, I figured you might be willing to give it a try.

If you're lazy/want to play it ultra safe, hit up a Wal-Mart. I got a Phillips one for something like $14 + tax, works great.

I'm selling some S-Video cables in my For Sale thread (see my signature below for the link). Have some cheaper generic ones, and some high quality Ultralink cables also - well below their store prices.

1 more quick question: What other cables do I need to go from my computer to my tv besides an s-video cable? Do I need anything for sound?

That card came with an s-video card. If its gone, just buy any old cheapo cable.
