    Having problems connecting my laptop to my TV so that I can view what I'm running on my laptop on the TV.Have connected the VGA cable into the correct port on the TV set, have gone to the correct AV channel on the TV, when I press Fn F8 on the laptop, a desktop view of the laptop comes up on the screen, but it is just an enlarged corner of the desktop view which can be seen on the TV.No matter what resolution settings I try on the laptop, doesnt make a difference to what I can see on the TV.No resolution settings options on the TV.Anybody got any ideas on how to get the view to fit the screen?The laptop is a DELL Latitude D630, TV is a Grundig 38 inch flat screen.
