My laptop has HD-DVD, but its resolution is like 1280 x 800. HD-DVD resolution is something like 1900 x 1220. I'm getting an HDMI to HDMI cord, but this won't make it look any better on my TV. Is there any way I can make my HDTV the actual screen of the laptop, so that nothing appears on the laptop, and the video signals are all transmitted to the TV?

Try changing the primary display to your TV once it's plugged in to your laptop.


You can do this easily through the display properties, or any software that came with/for your video card on your lappy.
