The laptop is a Dell Latitude C840 and the TV is a Sony Trinitron CRT. The sockets on the TV are two phono-Style AV inputs on the front and scarts on the back. The connectors on the back of the laptop CRT / LCD-out, with a "lll" above the (I 'm not techy so have no idea what this means!), and a parallel port on the side is one that a TV icon that I assume is the TV-Out connector. I have a TV-out also, the PS / 2 style connector for laptop connection on one side and then connect the other end with a PS / 2 style connector, a yellow phono-style connector and a black phono socket-style). What I am not sure whether it is best to connect to phono cables from the AV-style connectors on thr TV-Out connector of the AV inputs on the front of my tv, or get a scart converter and use the TV-Out Cable to connect my laptop to my TV. Advice please?

Here is what I recommend most people do when they ask me this (since I work at Circuit City). If your computer has an S-Video output, connect an S-Video cable from your laptop to the S-Video input on your TV. Connect the audio cable from your headphone input laptop to audio from the TV with a standard Y-cable. Your TV, one S-Video, unless it is more than 13 years old. Go to the S-Video channel on the TV and you've got it. Or perhaps Renting a projector would be easier if you do not have an S-Video output on your laptop.
