How do I connect my computer or laptop to my HDTV?

HDMI outputThis can be as simple as connecting your computer to your HDTV with just a single HDMI cable.  If your laptop or computer has an HDMI output (shown) - you're in luck.  Just attach the cord from the HDMI output on your computer, to the HDMI input on your HDTV.

 

 

 

DVI port

Otherwise, you can use a DVI-to-HDMI cable - the DVI on your computer (shown) and HDMI on the TV.  Either of these options will give you HD-quality picture on your big screen TV.

 

 

Mini-DVIMini-DVI to DVI adapterMany laptops - particularly smaller ones - have a Mini DVI port (left) instead of a DVI port.  If this is the case, you'll need a Mini DVI-to-DVI adapter (right), and then a DVI-to-HDMI cable.
