Hey guys. Having trouble connecting my TV to my PC (trying to set up dual monitors)

Here are a couple of specs for my PC, hope you guys can help!

NVIDIA GeForce GT620
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3350 CPU @ 3.10GHZ
Windows 8 x64

So all I did was use an HDMI cable to connect my TV to the back of my PC. Turned on TV and it shows no signal. Tried going into the NVIDIA control panel and the Windows control panel trying to detect the TV, but TV doesn't show up.

I've updated all my Windows and NVIDIA drivers.

What am I missing?

Should I try connecting the HDMI port directly to my normal monitor and try that out?
