In Reply to: My Samsung TV does not detect my PC with a long VGA cable............ posted by Cut-Throat on July 17, 2007 at 14:50:37:
Your laptop doesn't have enough drive to drive a longer cable, the work around is to use a VGA extender/booster. As far as the longest cable that would work, it would be difficult to know without knowing a lot of varibles. You could expirment with a few different lengths or try contacting the laptop manufacturer's technical support.
Here's a link for one but I'm sure there are many more on the net:
