    1. Yes, it's possible
    2. Depends on what connections your laptop has, what your TV has
    What connections are on your TV (Scart, Composite, VGA, HDMI, etc)
    What connections are on your laptop (VGA, DVI, S-Video, HDMI, etc)

  • Most lappies have at least a D-sub VGA, one of these will usually do it

    Here is an example / price / pic etc - read the FAQ's & get the correct length.
