hi all,
i'm trying to connect my toshiba laptop to my panasonic tv. as this lap top only has VGA (out) and my TV only has HDMI (in). I've bought a VGA/HDMI adapter - I can't get it to work. any ideas on what could be going wrong? i've been through appropriate control panels ad nauseum - but i still can't get my display up on the TV. Thanks in advance.
