Long Island PC Tech Fixing Long Island, One Computer at a Time!

I needed to write how to connect your laptop/computer to the TV as this question is asked all the time by my customers and friends.

So, if you are going crazy and do not know how to do it here is how:

• Make sure your laptop has an HDMI port like seen here: HDMI
   
• Make sure your TV has an HDMI port too;
   
• Now you buy an HDMI to HDMI cable that connects both and make sure to measure the distance in case you have a desktop and not a laptop, this is a great and cheap cable with hundreds of amazing reviews: 6ft and/or 10ft   
  
  15ft:   
   
  25ft:   
   
   
  
   
• If your laptop or desktop do not have an HDMI port, then you need to buy a DVI to HDMI cable but make sure you have a DVI port on the back of your computer as seen here and this would be the best cheapest choice about 6ft:  
   
  this one on the right is about 15 ft:   

Stay tuned for more tips!
