TIFFANY, JUST FOR YOUR INFORMATION, ALL CAPS IS CONSIDERED SHOUTING AND IN BAD TASTE, AND WON"T GET YOU MANY REPLIES.

But to your question. What video card are you using? Your problem sounds like something in the video card settings. BTW, did you turn on your TV before booting your computer? That's the usual procedure.

And welcome to our forums.

Most laptops have a key command that allows you to switch between three different display modes.
1. Just displays on the laptop
2. Just displays on the device plugged into the VGA port
3. Displays on both
I think that on my IBM laptop, I hold down the blue Fn key and press the F7 key. On my IBM the F7 key has two small blue pictures that look like a laptop and an external monitor. Try to figure out what the combination is on your laptop.
I hope that helps
