How to Display Your PC Video on a TV

Instructions

• 1). Turn off your computer and position it somewhere close to your television.
  
  
• 2). Disconnect the computer monitor, but keep the mouse and keyboard connected.
  
  
• 3). Connect the computer and television using the appropriate video cable (see Tips for a guide to which cable you should use). The cable should connect from the computer's output to the television's input slot. The shape of the ends of the cable should correspond to the shape of the output and input slots.
  
  
• 4). Turn on the television. Using the remote, access its menu to program its settings to an input that matches the output of the computer. For example, if your computer is outputting through an HDMI port, set the television viewing port to HDMI.
  
  
• 5). Turn on the computer. The display from your computer should be automatically displayed on the television screen if all the settings are correct. Refer to the Tips section for information on what to do if nothing is being displayed, or if the display is stretched.
