What cables are you using to connect the laptop to the TV? It should be one of four cables... VGA, DVI, HDMI, or S-Video. If it is not one of these cables... that is most likely the problem. Your computer must also have a Video-out connected internally (for example... my laptop has S-Video out... but it isn't hooked up inside the computer... the port is there.. but it is useless - an option on my laptop I guess). So let me know what cables it is... what type of laptop... and what brand of TV. I can probably figure it out if I have more info. Cheers!
