If you do, simply launch it, do a scan for the adapter, and connect to it. On the laptop, you will need to make sure that you have the latest version of Intel's WiDi software installed. Simply connect the adapter to your TV using either HDMI or a Composite connection, and switch your display to that input. The Belkin ScreenCast TV doesn't take a lot of expertise to set up. Shortcut keys to perform this task will also be shown in the WiDi software. Using Windows 7's Display Properties, you can set the ScreenCast TV adapter to be an extended display, which will allow you to use a maximum resolution of 1920x1080. In its most basic form, the Belkin ScreenCast TV duplicates your laptop screen exactly - in my tests, it used a default resolution of 1280x720.

The main purpose of the Belkin ScreenCast TV is to make it easy to throw content up on your TV (or other big-screen device), without having to fiddle with cables or excessive configuration settings on your laptop.
