    Break up the @givenDateTime to the date component and the time component and use AND to build up the WHERE clause:

    DECLARE @givenDate DATETIME 
    SELECT @givenDate = DATEADD(dd, 0, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, @givenDateTime))
    
    DECLARE @givenTime DATETIME 
    SELECT @givenTime =  CONVERT(varchar(2),
          CASE
               WHEN DATEPART([hour], @givenDateTime) > 12 THEN CONVERT(varchar(2), (DATEPART([hour], @givenDateTime) - 12))
               WHEN DATEPART([hour], @givenDateTime) = 0 THEN '12'
               ELSE CONVERT(varchar(2), DATEPART([hour], @givenDateTime))
          END
     ) + ':' +
     CONVERT(char(2), SUBSTRING(CONVERT(char(5), @givenDateTime, 108), 4, 2)) + ' ' +
     CONVERT(varchar(2),
          CASE
               WHEN DATEPART([hour], @givenDateTime) > 12 THEN 'PM'
               ELSE 'AM'
          END
     ) 
    
    SELECT * FROM myTable
    WHERE tableDate <= @givenDate AND tableTime <= @givenTime
    

    Date conversion taken from here.

    Note that the @givenTime will have a date of 01 Jan 1900 (plus the time), so be sure that your where clause takes that into account.
