Do this first: If you're using windows just right click on an open area of the desktop. Got to "Properties", then "Settings" then "Screen Resolution". Move the slider to a resolution that the TV supports.

Now go to the TV and hit "Source" until you get to VGA.

Find the function key on the laptop that cycles through the screens. It should be Fn+F8 - press Fn then while holding it down press F8.

You should be in business.
