depends what connectiong your tv and laptop have, does it not just have a vga connection on the tv most hd tvs do, that would be easiest.
failing that theres always s-video, most laptops have that.

A VGA port looks like this...
If it has one of these then thats the easiest way to connect it as it just becomes an external monitor for the laptop.
