    I know this is probably a silly question, but how do I go about it ? I've got the two connected and my laptop is reading the TV as a second monitor but I can't get any output onto the TV, audio or visual.

    Many Thanks.

    Change your TV to HDMI mode possibly? Audio you can set from your M1530.

    Yeah for the audio right click on the sound icon in the system tray and select playback devices. Then select HDMI and click on the set as default and then on OK. As for the video, it should recognize it and display it on connection.
