Laptop to TV monitor - neither working

[nottechsavvygirl]

I'm using windows vista. I tried to get my laptop to display using VGA to my TV. It's not working.

I was messing around with display setting and now the monitor on my laptop won't display when the vga plug is connected. How do I fix either/both? Thanks.

If you right-click on the desktop and go to screen resolution, do both screens show up?

Yes. But they no longer have #1 and #2 in the monitor boxes.

What happens if you click on the identify button on the right?

A "1" pops on the screen.
