I have an HP Touch smart 600 PC with Windows 7, and i'd like to hook it up to my PS3. The screen supports 1080p, so I would rather hook it up to the PC than a TV. The PC inputs are:a SPDIF input (looks like a red circle from a composite input), an audio out, a TV in (the output from an antenna), an S-video input, and an audio input. I have used the TV tuner capabilities of my computer before, and free-to-air streaming is done by Windows Media Center. I'd like to utilise the full capabilities of my screen, so anything that would provide high end graphics would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
 
I'm not sure you will be able to use the screen to its full capacity.
Due to a lack of bandwidth, S-Video connections are generally not considered suitable for high-definition video signals. S-Video carries standard definition video (typically at 480i or 576i resolution).

However give it a try, you have nothing to lose.
You will need a seperate audio input, via the SPDIF, as an S-video cable does not carry audio.
