I would not worry about the HDCP compliant too much. You have the TV and you have the laptop, so whether it is or not is not going to matter at this point. Playing standard DVDs will probably not get HDCP involved anyway. If they will play on your laptop screen, they should play on your TV.
You told us about your laptop, but no brand model of your TV. Assuming it has a HDMI port, you can get a DVI to HDMI cable for the video. There should be an audio input for the port as well. If your TV has a VGA port that will accept 1080p, then you can use a VGA cable.
Once you get the video and audio connected and working, there are any number of media players players that will up-convert standard DVD to the desktop resolution. I would recommend Power DVD, VLC Media Player, or Windows Media Player. Google search will provide you with download sites.
