Colors washed out when connecting laptop to TV?

I want to use my old Sony LCD TV as a monitor for my desk.

But when I connect my laptop (Lenovo S145) to it with HDMI, the colors are washed out for some reason. The whites on pages are also too overpowering, which makes the text hard to read.

I tried using the built-in Intel software to try and fix it with no luck.

Please help me find a fix!

Edit: added laptop details.
 
I'll try that and let you know

@nRiTeCh unfortunately, my tv only supports PC mode via VGA ports, and my laptop doesn't have one.

But I changed the HDMI cable and it somehow fixed itself. The cable works fine with my other devices and doesn't seem defective, so that's weird.

Regardless, you've solved an issue for me yet again. Thank you!
