Will this work with the monitor and keyboard/mouse from my Dell Inspiron that just died?

You can hook up a regular or HDMI monitor, and it has provision for USB & PS2 keyboards and mice. So you should be fine.

Most monitors and keyboards can be used with any computer...I use an old keyboard that I am used to and a Xerox monitor with my Gateway computer...I also used a Xerox mouse with my laptop Gateway....Hope this helps!

We used my daughter's old monitor and it worked perfectly but it came with a new keyboard and mouse so we just used those. Hope this helps. My grandkids love the computer!!

Yes, you can use a different keyboard and mouse. This computer has an option to connect your keyboard/mouse by usb cord or that circle cable connection. The keyboard and mouse that come with this computer is using a usb connection. As long as your monitor uses the "blue" screw in connection or hdmi cable, you can use it. I'm using an old monitor and have no issues

I bought this for an Older Dell with monitor - remember you don't need a keyboard/mouse because new ones come with this unit. It will definitely work with any monitor because those connections have never changed. Depending on how old your keyboard/mouse are they may have the older small PC connectors (probably not the really old fat ones) - this new keyboard/mouse are USB port connections.

It will definitely work with your monitor and keyboard/mouse from your now dead Dell Inspiron.

Yes and also it will work with a high definition TV if you have an HDMI input

I believe that it might be...I took a chance on it and it worked just fine with my older style Dell monitor. They take returns if it doesn't work, if my memory serves me right...

I don't think this will work with all computers. I have a 7-yr old Dell with a DVI tmonitor port - even with the DVI to HDMI adapter that came with the computer I'm not getting a signal. Also, so far it is not working with my Acer Chromebook either.

Yes it does...it works with my dell LCD monitor and my wireless dell keyboard and laser mouse

It should. I had an older machine that ran ran Windows XP and used a very similar mouse. As long as you have plug and play it should work.

more than likely, NO... it was purchased specifically for an old dell desktop... it is NOT a usb connection for one thing.. most new pc's only have usb connections... this is a parallel port connection. But, for my purposes which was to replace a monitor that had crapped out... it worked great!

The previous answer kind of sums it up. Both ends of the cable are male plugs so you have to have two female sockets for this cable to work. It works with my Dell monitor and Thermalake desktop case.

The computer comes with a wireless mouse and keyboard. In fact, the keyboard is the nicest I have used in over thirty years. I believe there will be an adapter for the monitor, but depending on the age of your old computer, you may already have one. If not, get an adapter, it's fairly cheap.

I use mine w/ an DVI adaptor plug and it works. You also need USB port to use the touch, so two cables and the respective ports on each. It should work, just be sure to be able to return the Dell if it doesn't.

Not sure about the monitor but if you're using a wireless kybd & mouse (Logitech in my case), then the answer is NO!!! The Unifying USB receiver s only capable of recognizing only one device type, that means 1 keyboard, 1 mouse, 1 touchpad. Apparently it doesn't pass that through the Iogear switch. At least not for me :-(

If you have an empty USB port, then this will work. I hooked up a monitor from my Dell laptop and it works fine.

It will only work if you Dell has this type connector, look to see if it has HDMI connection, this will be clearly stated in your owners manual.

I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 and it works just fine. Take a peak at this video for instructions and use a static strap to be safe, good luck.

I don't have a laptop but it should work with any device that's designed for a mouse and key board via USB input.

No, you need to use this with a Dell monitor that has the built in attachment and power source

It works with our Dell inspiron just fine. Plugs into the usb port. The drive in the computer failed. This was a quick, easy fix.

did you try this for connecting the external monitor to your laptop. I have a dell laptop and want to buy it for the same use.
