How to Connect Laptop to TV using HDMI - Easy & Fun
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
This video shows how to connect Laptop to HDMI TV which supports HDMI 1080p and VGA. See me connect the Toshiba Satellite C55D-A5120 Laptop up to my 37" Vizio Wide Screen LCD TV. My Laptop is running Windows 8 so you can see how to connect Laptop to TV using HDMI Windows 8 & Windows 8.1. Even though I'm using a laptop with Windows 8.1 you can still see how to connect a laptop up to a Wide Screen television using a Windows 7 laptop or Windows 10 laptop to TV. Any computer to TV HDMI can be connected using a good quality HDMI cable.
The Toshiba Satellite C55D-A5120 is a 15.6" Windows 8.1 laptop that can handle 1080p HDMI video with ease. It connects to my Vizio 37" flat screen TV with ease, but keep in mind that it's easy to see how to connect laptop to smart TV or to a dumb TV in my video. And performance was surprisingly excellent for a $300 laptop that I bought at Walmart too.
When using a HDMI cable it becomes very easy to have both video and audio being pushed through one single HDMI cable connection. This becomes great for any business setup for presentations, meetings and/or watching movies for recreation and leisure time. The single HDMI cable connection is far better than using a VGA and audio cable. HDMI gives far better picture and sound quality than a VGA and audio connection. It makes it much easier to see how to connect laptop to smart tv.

okay so for everyone that it isn't working: after you connect the HDMI or whatever you're using, hit windows + P and a tab should pop up with 4 options. and from there select whichever you want. for example you can select duplicate so it shows on the TV and laptop or second screen only, which is probably more battery friendly if you're not plugged in edit: you might have to change your screen resolution if the TV is older, not sure tho tbh

You saved the day!! Cable company couldn't mount/attach dish due to snow. I was having people over to watch the Broncos game and had no TV!! Watched your video and, in no time, had live TV streaming through my laptop to my TV!! THANK YOU!!!
Ohhhh I love how simple and easy this was compared to other videos I’ve seen. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! My family and I can now watch movies together from the laptop to the TV!
Love your simple and straightforward explanation. Just what I should have know at least 6 years ago! :)
SUPER clear instructions with photos to identify the right cable and ports! Mille grazie!
Perfect! I have used my HDMI cable for my MACBook Pro to TV before, but I'd forgot the simple hook up. I thought I had run it through my receiver before to get the sound out of my system. But this is fine.

Thank you for explaining the task in an understandable fashion!
Thanks for the tutorial! I play my pc games so much more now that I can have my laptop charging while enjoying it on the big screen!
OMG!! I LET OUT A HOOP AND A HOLLER!! YOU are the first person who explained this well enough and didnt tear thru it so that I could FINALLY see!! I can see! No more neck issues looking down at a tiny laptop while I telework during a pandemic. I believe I won't have any more headaches now! THANK YOU!!!! I am wondering tho why I couldnt get my laptop to work on the 400.00 monitor but it worked on the tv?? I just keep getting "no DMI" on the monitor, I'm about ready to return it!!!!
If I could like this 1000 times, I would! Short, no-frills to the point video. Thank you Sir!!!
Thanks so much bro, worked liked a charm in no time.
I should've known this 9 yrs ago. That's what happens when u lived in the mountains. Ur a good bloke thanks for the info
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! This is a lifesaver!!! My laptop's screen broke and I needed to transfer all of my files onto my hard drive. This tutorial really helped! Thanks again!!!!!
Easiest tutorial i seen all day thanks : )
Thank you very much! Now I can finally use my TV to do some stuff!
Thank you - been looking for simple directions on this for awhile, this is it.
Thanks so much! Couldn't do without it! Super easy that I felt dumb for not figuring it out myself.
Thank you for this very simple instruction on how to hook up the HDMI cable from laptop to TV! I know it is simple, but there are still a lot of techie things I don't know, and I have been wanting to watch my streamed videos on my non-smart TV, but I didn't know how to do it. I really appreciate this video, and I have subscribed to your channel, because it looks like you have a lot of information I could use! Thanks 😊

Thank you! Something so easy I forgot! Thanks for this!
Thanks I'm typing this on my tv.
Lmao 😂 i came to know this thing just a year ago and this video is 6 years ago
Loved the simple instructions!!!
OMG, it worked. It didn't at first cuz I had tv on PC when I changed it to HDM2 (not 1) it worked. Plus I don't think I had the thing plugged in my tv all the way. Thank you sooo much. I'm stoked.
I see how the method is "easy", but how is plugging cables "fun"? Anyways, thanks for the video:)
Ok do i adjust computer display resolution or tv? I did window p And it said i cant project to another screen. Try reinstalling driver or different video card Really old flat screen It worked fine using as primary on a desktop
Thanks man . It worked easily ❤️
Nick, that was the most clear and concise video instruction I have ever seen. Brilliant. However, I just have to try it and see it it works! 😊 I'll be baack!
