Hi. Your Sharp has to be set to receive signals from the S-video. This is usually a menu item or there may be a button for the source signal on the remote. Check the manual.































Just so you know, the S-video input is for picture only. Audio will need another set of cables, usually RCA type plugs with red for right channel and white for left. You may need a converter plug (very inexpensive from Radio Shack) to convert 1/8" stereo to RCA outputs.

you need to activate the video out on the laptop to use the tv as a monitor etc....use the function key and one of the F keys at the same time..it may say lcd or Tv on the proper F key....cheers
