there is a cable similar to the vga cable with hdmi on one end. use this type of cable. next use the tv as a monitor. check http://www.newegg.com

its all controlled by the advanced settings of your display adapter
if you had bothered to mention your model or even your video card
then i might have helped more

you need to know your tv settings exactly, usually 1366x768 is the norm

Hello locadbx13,
My name is Krishna and I work for the Social Media and Community Team at Dell. Unfortunately, you can transmit signals from VGA to HDMI without a converter. Here is how it looks.
