Well basically in the back of your tv there will be a pc input, its a simple as plugging your computer into that port. That cable will be fine but if you wanna view on your tv you have to switch the cable from tv to monitor. You could get a vga splitter that will allow you to quickly switch or view your computer on both screens.
 
Ok, now i know how to do it. but is the wire going to be ok?

In my tv manual it says about RGB to DVI coverter because my tv dosnt have DVI? and then it goes on about how i need a 3.5mm audio cable :S
