Its ok, i've sorted it now.
They both have a vga 15 pin connector on them.
So should just be a case of getting a cable to connect them both. Right??

Hi lushlynn,

If you hold down the FN key and then tap the F4 key, this should switch between laptop/tv/laptop + tv

If it do esn't work - please post your laptop model and make - as Hengis previously asked, and we'll find out for you
