But if you cant buy any new peripherals a hdmi cable is your only real option.

does apple tv need my computer to be on ?
Yes it has a youtube app and simply needs to be connected to the internet. Your pc doesnt need to be on.
Just connect a laptop or desktop with a HDMI cable, put your TV on the right source (keep pressing the "source" or "src" button on your TV remote until you get signal), and the TV should mirror your PC screen. It's not gonna work without a PC.

Sorry, but I cannot help you with that, I don't know anything about Apple TV, but I suspect you do not need a PC for that.
