i want to connect pc to tv, but they're in different rooms. one choice would be to move them next to each other and hook up directly. are there any cheap alternative methods? something wireless?

Really long s-video cable? Here's a long cheap one but I'm not sure how the quality would be for a run that long. I'd say get an s-video cable as short as you can to do the run.

I don't know if there's a good wireless method, and if there is, it's probably pricey.

If you can, just move the computer to the other room and you'll get the best quality picture from the shorter run etc.

I'm not really sure how long a run a videocard will be able to run a signal well.

use a wireless emitter..they are pretty cheap i think...hook the emitter on your tv out and then you can receive from any room...think the range is 30meters
