You computer needs to be setup to send a signal to the tv.

You have to have the cable connected when you start you computer. (connect both to the tv and computer). If your using windows you need to right click on your desktop. Click on properites. On the window that pops up look for a tab that says Settings. You should seen at least tv boxes that have a number in them. If you have two it is really easy to tell which one is the tv one. Then you click on the box and put a check in the box with Extend my windows desktop onto this monitor.

After a brief wait you should see the desktop on the tv.

If your using another OS I'm sure they have something similar.
