OK, so what are you connecting to on the laptop? What are you connecting to on the TV, what cable have you got?

Assuming that you have all the correct connections, there is usually a Function key that toggles between computer/tv/both, try pressing the key a couple of times and see if that works. You may well find it to be Fn + F3 or Fn + F5

Mine's Fn + F4. It should be pretty obvious which it is.

Best to make sure the TV's AV is switched to VGA too.
