My HP laptop has a vga port and expansion port and I want to connect it to my HDTV with an HMDI port.
Can I use an HDMI cable and add an adapter to one end. Will I get audio this way?

Please tell me the best way to do the above for good quality and not too expensive.

I have a dongle now, but it limits me, so I would rather work directly with laptop connection to TV.

Your thoughts.

Thanks,
Linda
