IF it has Vista it will have USB2 ports so you should be good to go

Thanks again for the help. I have passed on the info and wait until he decides which to go for.

Any idea if this is cheaper anywhere else?

If you just want to connect directly you can use a usb to hdmi dongle http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cable-Matte...=UTF8&qid=1430046514&sr=8-1&keywords=usb2hdmi Just need a hdmi cable after that

This arrived today and I have hooked it up to the laptop...the sound is now going through my TV but the picture is only of my desktop background with no apps/shortcut things...

Any ideas?

Cheers again.
