The laptop should recognize the tv. first you need to power off laptop completely(shut it down, don't do a restart). plug hdmi to tv then turn on tv. power up pc and it should recognize your tv. Use projector mode if available on your pc. don't unplug cable while computer is on or the process will need to be repeated.

How to activate my laptop to my samsung tv

If you mean watch what you see on your laptop on your TV, then you need to connect an HDMI cable or S-Video cable (depending on what sort of ports you have) from your laptop to your TV, then select the appropriate input on your TV or TV remote. For example if connected via HDMI and your TV has 2 HDMI inputs (ie. HDMI 1 and HDMI 2), select which one you connected to.

Hooking up home theater

Run a regular RCA type audio cable from your TV audio out to your Home Theatre audio in. That is what I have done recently with my Samsung LCD and Home Theater. You then have to put your Home Theater on Aux 1 or Aux 2 to get the sound from TV. Ensure your TV's volume is off.
