Hello all, Iwould like to connect my laptop to my projector. It is a zoombox(toy) projector that I actually think works fine for us right now. It has the red, white, and yellow jacks and the laptop has the standard hookup(as you can tell i don't know the names for these things) I would just like to connect them so the laptop screen shows on the projector. thanks!!

Look for a VGA to video converter. This will convert your 15 pin connector from your laptop to composite video ( the yellow jack). For the audio, you just need a 3.5 mm stereo phono plug to RCA Male "Y" cable. Try Radio Shack or google it.
