I a feeling that your computers screen is blank because it is displaying to the TV and the TV is blank because it is on the wrong input. Your TV/remote should have an input or source button which you can use to select the appropriate input.

What type of connection are you using and what is the laptop model?
hdmi cable and a hp G 60
I tried all the inputs, this is the one that said "input signal out of range when I unplugged one of the two cables used to connect the hdmi?
I used an hdmi and a vga. Is that wrong?
You should only need to use the HDMI cable (as long as both devices have an appropriate port. If they don't, you will need a different way to connect)
Did you laptop or the computer say input signal out of range?
ok, now I'm using just the HDMI, and it says "Input signal Out of range?" -Thanks so much for taking the time to help me :)
sorry. The tv said that. and now the screen doesnt go black on either devices. just gives that error message on tv.
You need to change the resolution on the laptop before you connect them (most likely lower it).
perfect. how do i do that?
Right click on your laptops desktop and select 'Screen Resolution'. From the dropdown to the right of 'Resolution' choose the smallest. Once you do this try plugging it in. If it works you can then try increasing the resolution.
OMG. after 2 years of trying. I am now looking at this from my TV. YOU ARE AWESOME!! THANK YOU!!!
No problem.
