How do you hook up a desktop to your flat screen TV?

How can you get your desktop image on the tv?

  • I have an HDTV and I'm trying to hook it up to my computer. I want the same image on my tv as is on my laptop screen. So far I have only been able to extend the desktop, but not duplicate it. It's incredibly annoying. I'm using a VGA cable b/c my computer does not have an HDMI output, and Windows Vista is my operating system. Can anyone help?

Connect your TV on the VGA port. Change your display setting to dual display or clone mode. You may also click Connect to a projector then Duplicate.

What is you laptop brand and model? There must be a button on the keyboard which determines the video out mode. (The button you looking for is usually printed with blue which indicates it is used with FN key) WHen you press it you can switch between only Monitor, only TV or both. If you can provide the model of your laptop, i can help more
