Default Laptop Computer to HD Ready TV connection

I need help. I'm not very much into high definition and the electronics involved, so please keep your answer basic and simple.

I want to be able to show high quality digitial photos on my laptop computer on my high definition ready TV. I have been using my S-video connection from my laptop to my TV, but that transmits only analog and the quality of the photos on the TV are not very good. I want to take advantage of all the lines/pixels on my HDTV when sending my photo files to the TV.

I understand that if my TV has a 15 pin connector I can connect that to my 15 pin connector on my laptop, but it doesn't. I have the normal high definition "post" connectors one can use to hook in a high definition cable feed and I may (I'm not sure) have a 24 pin connector on the back of my TV (I say "I'm not sure" because the TV is very heavy to pull out of my entertainment center bookcase to look).

Is there a "converter" connector one can buy which, for expample, will hook into my 15 pin connector on my laptop on one end and into the necessary multiple "plug" HD connectors on my TV at the other end?
