im trying to connect my laptop to my LCD with a VGA to HDMI cable. i can't seem to get it to connect and display anything on the t.v. i have windows 7 64bit. i have been looking in the display settings and messing with the display on multiple displays and it's not working. i have changed the display to #2 display on vga, and it doesn't work. it's really driving me crazy and not sure what else to do. i even tried the connect to projector setting. i tried restarting and everything that i can think of. where else should i look?

A straight VGA to HDMI cable will not work for what you are attempting to do. They are 2 different signal types (digital vs analog). You will need a converter to get a picture.
Monoprice has decent ones pretty cheap. We use these on our clients DVR's that are VGA out only.
