Depends on the TV and the laptop.

If the TV and the laptop are new enough you may be able to "cast" to the TV. If not. maybe the TV has a HDMI port and so does the computer, than it's just a matter of connecting a HDMI cable between the two and then selecting the HDMI input source on the TV. Again, the TV needs to be new enough to have input options and the HDMI port connection.

There are some variables to "casting" to the TV such as anti-virus programs, wi-fi settings etc. These can take a while to figure out and set up properly.

Sounds like you need someone to actually pay you a visit, look at your equipment and go from there.

The TV has an HDMI port, but many newer laptops do not. If yours doesn't, you would need a USB-C to HDMI adapter and an HDMI cable.

I did not see the HDMI port. only the coax ports - I do have an adapter for my laptop for the HDMI port, I will look for it more carefully!
Thank you everyone for helping!
