    really dont know where to post this, hoping its ok here...

    Looking to replace my ageing plasma with a new one, been looking at some today and its quite alarming how few inputs most new screens have today.
    ultimately i want my DC to run through the VGA or at least the official scart i have.
    my current 6 year old samsung doesnt like the DC scart lead ad refuses to show a picture, i read the DC scart can cause problems on certain TVs.
    Is the PC RGB input the same as a VGA input?

    Has anyone bought a new screen recently that they use their DC with?

    thanks for any advice...

    Yes, the "PC RGB" input is just a standard VGA input. You can use the VGA box for the Dreamcast through that port.

    I have a Samsung series 5 LCD hdtv & I bought it solely for my dreamcast, it has every connection in the book (well a few of each :encouragement:) and a vgaport as well. its a model of a few years back, but they can still be found in stores & are relatively cheap
