How can I connect my computer to a tv that only has a red, yellow, and white cord capability?
Sorry, my computer/tv language is a little lacking. My tv is really old and only has those three holes (one red, one yellow, and one white) and I cannot plug in an S-video cable. Is there any other way to connect my laptop to the tv to watch videos?
You should find out if your TV supports VGA. It'll look like the plug where your monitor plugs in on your computer. VGA is higher quality than S-Video.
Here's a blog post that explains it: http://gainedknowledge.blogspot.com/2008/09/connect-your-computer-to-your-tv-using.html
How To Get Game Save Data Off Dead Ps3 Hard Drive Blinking Yellow?
How to Get Game Save Data Off Dead PS3 Hard Drive Blinking Yellow?
Well, if you send your ps3 to Sony, you'll lose all your game data...because you will either get a refurbished one or a reformatted wiped out hard drive.
Either way, you'll lose all the saved data. However you can try to recover those data with the help of the options shown on DIY ps3 lights fix repair guide by Rob Sheffield besides you can save $120+ on the repair cost if your PS3 is out of warranty.
Recently my PS3 started blinking red light which turned to yellow light later, when I was playing Modern Warfare 2. Since my ps3 was out of warranty Sony said they would charge me $150 + Shipping & Handling charges to fix my PS3 and I have to wait for 4-6 weeks.
Since I didn't want to spend that much money and also didn't like to wait for 6 weeks without playing my favorite games Assassin's Creed and Grand Theft Auto, I thought why not let me try to fix my PS3 myself.
But first I have to get some book or guide that should tell me all about this Yellow Light of Death and How to fix it.
