Another boot problem

Running Windows 7 (I think it's Home Basic but I can't check right now) I tried to connect the laptop to my TV to display an English language program for foreigners. I didn't know how to do it so I experimented, and finding "projector" in the control panel I clicked "projector only" at which time the screen went blank....and has stayed blank after the "Starting Windows" icon thru repeated attempts to boot. I don't know how to get the video back onto my screen.

Assuming I can get the video back I'll still need to know how to properly connect to and adjust the TV, using a VGA connector at the laptop end and a HDMI at the TV end of the cable.

Both the computer and the TV have RCA ports and I wonder if that might be a better choice of cable for connecting the two.

Thanks much in advance.

Hey, which one of you already fixed it LOL? After 4 days of nothing the video just popped up in a normal display. Now I only need to know how to connect to the TV to display computer programs on the TV

The Toshiba laptop has that blue VGA jobbie and also has RCA ports but I couldn´t tell you if they are input or output.

The TV also has two HDMI ports, one labelled DVI in and one unlabelled; It also has the following ports;

RGB IN (PC)
RS-232C IN (CONTROL)
AUDIO IN (RGB/DVI)

Doc, I HAVE that cable. I just don't know which of the two HDMI port in the TV to plug into and what to do to configure both the computer and TV to desplay on the TV.

Doc, as soon as I right clicked, my laptop monitor went black and nothing is showing on the TV screen except NO SIGNAL and now I can't get the video back on my laptop.

By the way, I tried both HDMI ports. There must be something to set that I don't know about
