I have three ROKU's which I love; but when I want to project from my laptop (Windows 7 or XP) I simply connect the laptop to an empty HDMI port. Of course, the laptop function key feature has to be toggled to display on the TV; or the laptop; or on both the TV and laptop. The HDMI can be purchased for about $15.00.
The above method is preferred because the laptop keyboard is the ONLY one required for maneuvering the display. You don't need the TV remote or the ROKU remote.
