    Need help connecting my Wii to new TV

    I just bought a 46" Samsung LED HDTV. I've hooked up everything except my WII. The yellow, white, red cables is not an input on this TV only the Blue, Green, REd and Red, White audio.

    So I bought a converter cable for the Wii with RED, BLUE, Green and Red, White and Yellow and S-video for output.
    No S-Video on TV either so left with only ability for Red, Blue, Green component in with white, red audio. Plugged it in that way and no signal.

    I actually can't get anything, DVD player, etc. to work in the component in. Any suggestions?

      Test the converter cable for the WII by trying it on another TV. Make sure you are connecting the wires properly. Also check settings on the TV and be certain it's in the proper mode. I take it the TV has no HDMI input?

          4 HDMI inputs, PC input, cable input and component input (red, green, blue). I switch to component and nothing... just says no signal. Strange channel, some other setting I don't know about?

                  That was it. Yellow went into green and then used the red and white for audio and my source selection changed from component to AV and it works
