Did your dell 4100-4150 models come supplied with an S-Video to Composite adapter? The manual seems to imply that it comes with the system, but I didn't get one and Dell customer care doesn't think I should get one either.

Nope, it doesn't come with one. When I bought mine, you had the option the add a kit with the adapter and cables, don't know if they still offer it...


Anyways, they just cost a few bucks. You can use this one with a composite cable, or even better, this adapter with a S-Video cable. The second option is better because the signal stays S-Video until it reaches your TV, so there's less degradation...
