    Your laptop only has VGA so that's your only option. Also VGA can't run sound so you will have to handle that separately through the mic jack. Make sure your TV has VGA input first though, it says it has PC on the page you linked but that could mean DVI or VGA (though I'd usually interpret it as meaning VGA)

    You can use 3.5mm male to dual stereo rca male stereo,ie 2 rca male ,l,r audio, for sound,with a 3.5mm female to male to make it longer,.
    GET it from maplins or hifi shop.You might need to order cable from a web site ,if you need a 12ft cable.maplins have 3.5mm cables about 6ft long.OR join 2 cables together,using a female 3.5mm to female 3.5 mm unit.
    IT WOULD be easier if you bought a laptop with hdmi out.
