My understanding is that your computer has a VGA port, which looks like the first one here: http://www.notebookreview.com/assets/9333.jpg
Your Aldi TV does not have a VGA port, and only RCA.
1) Junction box - most likely to work

Bit more expensive, but good quality.
2) Cable adapter: VGA to RCA (yellow / video) AND/OR S-video

Buy from: $ about a few bucks

A Better option, but cheaper quality, and may not work.
I do not recommend an usb adapter as there is even less chance of working.
final - get a junction box, i have better experiences with them.
how to use:
Plug VGA (rectangle) to computer and S-Video or RCA yellow to tv. You may need an extension cable.
When your computer is ready, turn on display-out. You can do this by pressing: "Fn" and "F7" at the same time. http://www.notebookreview.com/assets/9328.jpg
