    I don't think they make that. Do you have a VGA input on your tv? If so, use VGA for your video and a set of 3.5mm to RCA for audio.

    hopefully your laptop has a DVI connection.....

    most tv;s have a s-video connection....check your tv its a little black port like this,

    your computer (video card) is not capable of 1080i quality,
    your going to have to settle with either a vga or s-video connection:(

    YOUR computer has several graphics cards it was released with it, so tell me does your computer have a DVI port on the back (branching of the graphics car)

    if it has additional points on it dont worry:)

    let me put this strait for you

    vga to HDMI- not possible

    VGA to DVI to HDMI- not possible

    s-video to HDMI- not possible

    DVI to HDMI- possible

    the only way your connecting your computer to HDMI is if it has a DVI port ok? you'll then either get 720p or if your really lucky your graphics card is capable 1080i/p,

    ---------------------------
    no way in hell, you can connect a BD-R or HD-DVD player externally to your computer via USB BUT the connection to the screen cant be via USB
    to HDMI:)

    You might be able to upgrade your graphics card to a 1080 one, but it might cost alot. Check Tigerdirect for some prices.

    Dude...I originally asked you if it had a VGA input! So what's the truth behind this?

    If you do have a VGA input on your tv, do what I originally suggested.
