vga to rca has sound but no picture

[Chris_352]

I'm trying to connect my Nintendo 64 up to a computer monitor with a vga to rca, the sound comes out just fine but the picture doesn't work. is it because it also has an svideo slot?

You might need something like https://www.amazon.com/Composite-S-Video-Converter-Screen-Version/dp/B003NUN7DG

this is what i have, would i just use the thing you showed me or should this have worked?

A simple adapter does not work. There are a lot of negative reviews on that page...

Speaking of reviews... this one gets better: https://www.amazon.com/LESHP-Computer-Converter-Monitor-Composite/dp/B01MRO5MDM/ref=sr_1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1482357079&sr=1-6&keywords=rca+to+vga+box
or look for similar.
