I'm using windows 7 and I'm trying to connect my desktop to a TV to use that as the main monitor. Using the PC cord like I would a normal computer monitor, I connect it to the TV and the screen goes black. When I restart, the TV shows the dell logo and then it shows the "windows starting" logo, but when it comes to the user screen it goes black. The cord isn't loose, because I was sure to check that first and when they aren't connected the TV reads "no signal"

Any ideas?

You will need to adjust the screen resolution on your computer to match what your TV can display.
