    Need more info on your computer, manufacturer, is the video card incorporated in to the motherboard, or is it a separate card. If the card is separate then who is the video card manufacturer. This way we can give you a better answer.

        It appears to be an integrated video with the motherboard. Being that your TV is old and only have composite video in your chances are very slim to find a video card that has composite video out. Unless someone else has an idea.

            There might be a way to change the RGB signal to composite. There may even be an adpter that you can get that will accomplish this, but I am not aware of one.

              Don't mean to spam friend, but this is what I use,

              in case I can't post the url it is a dual ended VGA cord. I plug my laptop into my vizio and no more burning CD's

              Hope that helped you.

                RGB is red-green-blue. Otherwise referred to as component. It will do any high def signal used today. Whether the picture is better or not depends on if the TV and GameCube will do HD.

                If you do RGB you will need another cable to do the audio because the RGB is for video only.
