Video cable question

[rsales]

My 21" Nokia monitor has red green blue, bnc, inputs. Seems to me when I bought it people here said the cable for the red green blue connections connects to the same output on the video card. What is this cable called and where do I get one. Is there any advantage to using the red green blue inputs? I also have a 25" Sony TV that has red green blue inputs and it might be interesting to try them.

Only 3 inputs? are they like RCA on the tv or is the connector a little dif?

If you have 5 it's BNC

As I recall they are bnc connectors on the monitor. Don't remember how many. Don't know about the TV have to check. At work now. Would like to try it on the monitor if I can find a place to get the cable. What do they call the cable so I know what I am looking for???

I have one of those cables laying around somewhere. I use to use a 21 comcrap monitor that came with that cable. I looked cool so I scarfed it, just in case I needed it in the future. I'll see if I can dig it up and send it to you.

Got a new Belkin DB15 male/5 bnc males cable from a friend. Will try it when I get home tonight. Thanks for all the information.

Well tried the cable and didn't work. No video? New cable and I made sure I plugged it in correctly. Hummmm in the manual under bnc it talks about not being plug and play? Maybe Win98se isn't seeing a monitor there? Monitor was setup in Win98se using the other connection? Don't know right now what's going on.
