If your TV has RCA jacks on the back or front. Input type. Then you can go to radio shack and get a vga cable to RCA jack converter. That is all you can do. Is the TV a flat screen if yes then you can hook up you pc with a monitor cable like your usine now in your house. Find out the type of TV.. Ask someone to check the tv for a computer port on the back.

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/howard_079189dd4959a511

Depending on how modern your tv is - see if your tv has a VGA input (it looks like a mini scart socket) if so - you can connect your acer laptop vga lead. If you need audio output from your tv aswell you will also need a 3.5 jack extention lead which will also connect directly from your laptop into the tv..

Hope this helps

    Or just get an hdmi cable (only for hdtv with hdmi input) and the aspire should have a hdmi port on it then just follow what pops up on the screen for a two screen presentation that way you see what slide you have next

Lcd not showing

Hook a external monitor to the video output usually on the back, if picture okay! the inverter board or the backlight has failed, but if both screens show the same symptom it is the Video Graphics Card that is bad, normally built into the motherboard.

When I hook my laptop up to my tv - I cn't get any video to my tv (I have checked the settings for the tv - they are correct - but no video

You may have to toggle the video-out keys on your laptop to get output to the port you have your tv hooked to. Usually this is done by holding the "Fn" key and tapping the "F4" (or similar; a function key is marked with a circle in a square beside just a circle (on our Gateway laptop)). This usually toggles the output as: Laptop screen/Video out/both , in rotation. I hope this solves your problem. Good luck.
