Solution
You will need DVI-to-HDMI cable for video, and 3.5mm-to-RCA (white/red) for audio, if your TV supports it.
On your laptop (assuming you run Windows), press and hold <Windows> key then press <P>. Select "Extend", or "Duplicate", you should see picture on the TV.

Make sure your TV is set to proper HDMI input.
