  1. no tv stated, only a vague model name,
  2. so you want use the TV as a monitor, so what jacks on your PC now(VGA), some models have extra ones called options.
  3. does the TV have HDMI and you want to use that,?
  4. the tv has sticker on the back called the service tag and tells you and use what TV it is, and some have sub models, that support up to 5 video feeds, even composite feeds VGA;/DVI,DM, and HDMI. or more.
  5. 12 year old Laptop 2007 most with only VGA jack (bingo)
  6. the magic hot key, FN+F5 to enable this port on the PC.
  7. then one usually buys a VGA to HDMI cable and adaptor to the TV, if the unstated TV is newer and only has HDMI ports on it, as all do now, (high end TVs have them all , all jacks)
  8. NO TV stated but here is your long answer.
  9. The limit to VGA will be this Mobile Intel ® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD with 128MB- 1342MB

SOURCE: can i connect toshiba satellite a205 to tv?

Yes VGA carries RGBHV--RGB and Horizontal and Vertical Sync information along with DDC info where available.

Now is that port on your TV a d-sub 15 pin standard VGA connector?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VGA_connector

If it is, then yeah you should be able to output VGA from a PC to the TV with a proper cable.

However if the TV has DVI or HDMI connections on it, it's better for you to connect it that way. DVI/HDMI is a digital signal and if it's a digital-based display tech TV, then you're better off using that. Also if the TV does resolution above 1360x768 (i.e. if it does 1080p) you can get higher resolution by going via DVI/HDMI...

SOURCE: Can I connect my LG

Ok in order to hook up the laptop to the TV you have 2 options
First option.
Buy something like this
http://www.amazon.com/Sewell-Converter-All-One-Cable/dp/B003BVVYSM it will directly interface your laptop with your tv. The benefit will be you will get sound to your tv from the laptop

second option.
you will need a vga to hdmi cable like this one
avatar23454_5.jpg
you can buy this here
now this option will only let you have just the video from your laptop on the television because a VGA cable is a video only cable and port.
I hope this helps you.

Toshiba satellite L305-s5955 will not power up

If there is no power light and it can't charge your laptop, it is likely that the charger is dead. You need a new laptop charger. So try a new adapter to confirm the real issue.

There are two kinds of ac adapters for your toshiba l305-s5955

Toshiba Satellite L305 AC Adapter 75Watt 19V 3.95A

Toshiba Satellite L305 AC Adapter 90Watt 19V 4.74A

You should choose the right charger depending on your original adapter's specification. If the original one need 90w, you won't buy 75w that will bring damage to your laptop. If it needs 75w you can use 90w too.

What do I need and how do I connect my Toshiba L305 model PSLB8 050302f to my hdtv to view online tv?

I dont believe that laptop has an HDMI port on it. If you have an LCD TV then your TV may have a VGA or DVI input on it. You can connect your laptop to the TV by using a VGA to VGA or VGA to DVI cable. If you your TV doesn't have one of these input ports, then you're not going to get your laptop connected to your TV.

I don't know what cable to get to connect my Toshiba satellite L305 to my TV.

Some use USB to connect pc to tv. Others use a ps/2 type with the pins in it to connect. Once they are connected, go to your main window screen, right click, go to properties, go to display. You will see a box #1 and a box #2. You will need to click and drag box #2 to the left side of box #1 and then click apply, then ok. Now you should see your screen on your tv
