Read through this thread to see all the connection modes for my laptop (NVidia 6100GO chipset).
http://forum.videohelp.com/topic344750.html

Yours will be different but the setting process will be similar.

Most important: The TV must be connected and on when you reboot the computer. That is the only way to get NVidia to detect the TV and open the TV settings.

If you connect it DVI-HDMI, it will offer HDMI settings
If you connect it VGA, it will offer VGA resolution settings

And don't forget to follow Samsung's detailed instructions to get the TV to display from the correct input.

DVI doesn't carry audio. You have to run audio separately. You'll probably need a cable like this:
