Many laptops have a “Display” key that can be accessed with the Fn (Function) key. This key will let you cycle through the available display options. You can extend your display to cover both screens, duplicate/mirror your display so each screen shows the same thing, or have only one screen enabled (either your laptop or your TV).
if using windows 7 or 8 then pres windows + p to bring up the Project menu, which will allow you to choose your display preferences.

many vga to hdmi converter boxes have menus and have to set your display settings to the settings of the tv (note that i said many , so not all converters have this). Consult the manual of the vga-hdmi converter.
