Ater connecting my laptop to my TV , I can see my laptop screen, but the sound is not trasnferred to the TV. Is this possible?

    How are you connecting to your tv? With a vga cord you will not get sound. You will have to insert a audio cable from your tv to your pc. HDMI will give you sound as will a wifi connection.

Make sure that you have also connected the sound ( Stereo earphone jack > double RCA cable) to your tv.

The HDMI connection to my TV is disconnected anytime a video finishes or the window is closed in full screen mode.

Sounds like You do not have the Current Drivers loaded for you're video card, Check with Manufacturers website. Is it AMD or Nvidia Graphics?
Both have a advanced video config Options for connecting to larger displays.If You're s does not have the Advanced Options then You're on board Video card is not capable of connecting properly and is working overtime to compensate through default procedures in Windows, Which If you're laptop does not have a fan to keep the SYSTEM cool You will end up with Damage to you're laptop

When i connect my laptop to the tv i get sound but no pic.

Computers have two seperate systems - one for video and one for sound.

The only computer (or laptop) connection that carries both video and sound is HDMI. If you do not have a HDMI/DVI connector on the back of your computer, then you will have to use the VGA-composite or s-video connectors to display your PC's output on an external monitor like an LCD TV.

On both my HP and Dell laptops the display settings (Start/Control Panel/Personalize/Display Settings) allow two modes - single or dual monitor mode. Single monitor mode allows me to switch between any one of three possible video outputs - VGA-composite, S-Video or laptop screen, or a split-desktop (display spread over two seperate monitors). Dual monitor mode allows the same display on any two of three possible video outputs.

Switching is performed using the fn keys on the keyboard (fn key plus the F2, F8, etc. function key with the display marking). You guys use single monitor mode until you figure out what your are doing. Select VGA-composite or S-Video.

Non-HDMI sound to your TV monitor or sound system must be obtained from your laptop's Headphone or S/PDIF jacks. Headphone is stereo and S/PDIF is 5.1 surround sound. Headphone is electrical, but S/PDIF may be electrical or optical (laser light). You must set the sound jack that you intend to use as the default on the PC control panel (Start/Control Panel/Sound).

None of these connectors is two-way in the context of an LCD monitor - your PC cannot record a TV picture or sound from the external monitor. To accomplish this you must purchase a video converter box that converts cable TV or video+sound inputs to USB format usable by your laptop. Do this and you can turn your laptop into a Tivo recorder/DVD burner using Beyond TV, Sage TV or a variety of other software packages.

I have a large projection toshiba tv. When I turn it on the red light indicator blinks but tv screen does not go on. Please help and let me know what I am doing wrong. Thank you.

one thing you may try first is disconecting the tv from ac outlet and plug back in ater 20-30 seconds, try to power back on. If nothing happens you're not doing anything wrong it might be that the tv needs circuit repair, the light blinks and you get sound indicateds a possible deflection board problem either horiz out transistor or surrounding circuit if you only get the blinking light no pix or sound could be also indicator of defl circuit failure or switching mode power supply acting up.hope this helps please let this site know if your question was answered.

Want to connect my Sony vaio VGN-A250 to Sharp 19'' LCD TV

Your laptop will have a VGA output or possibly a S-video out. For the VGA you'll need a standard VGA cable. Plug the cable in to your laptop and the PC input of your TV. If your TV does not have PC input it may have a DVI input. IF it does you can use a VGA/DVI adapter to plug it in. If it doesn't have a DVI input you can use the S-Video output on your laptop with a standard S-video cable. After the connection to your TV is made you will have to toggle alternate display by pressing and holding your [Fn] key and pressing F4, or F5, or another F# key. It's the one that looks like a TV screen. Press once to turn on output, press again to turn off your laptop screen, press again to go back to laptop screen only
