Will this monitor connect to a dell laptop (i know, i'm not very savvy but i need this for working from home!)?

It should, as long as your Dell laptop has the 15 pin SVGA connector for an external monitor. The connector looks kind of like a lopsided D on it's side with like 3 rows of staggard pins.

This has a digital connection (white) and VGA (blue) connection. If your laptop has one of the same connections it should work.

This is just an interface card, to give you DVI output. So if you dell has a PCI slot , then yes it should be. Personally I would purchase a actual video card with a graphics processor and memory on it if your looking to just gain the DVI port, this option will actually give you better performance than the feature card your looking at, and it will display at a faster rate.

Yes, as I bought a Dell 22" monitor for my wife for this docking station. The only thing is load the driver for your monitor. That's it. Just make sure you have the currect driver. My laptop and my daughter's laptop is Windows 8 where Sandy (wife) is Windows 7. Yeah we connect sometimes when wife is not connected to the docking station. So again. Different drivers. Hope this helps.

Can this be used to hook up a laptop computer? (I have a laptop that works but with a broken monitor. I'm thinking this might be a passable -- I don't have high hopes for "great," but it might be passable -- solution until I can get the laptop fixed?Could I either connect this with a standard monitor plug or with one of my laptop's USB ports?Thanks.

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!

It will connect to any device that has the proper video port connection. They do not show a cable in the pictures for the monitor but it does use one and does not connect wirelessly.

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

Sorry for the delay. We are using this adapter to connect a VGA monitor to an HDMI port on a computer running MS-Windows. It should connect any VGA monitor to an HDMI port on your Dell laptop. The device is working well for us.

Not sure. It didn't work for me from a Dell HDMI laptop port to a Dell Monitor display port.

No. This will go to the monitor VGA input alright but hooks up to the computers USB port. You need to be running Windows.

It should if DELL says the laptop outputs VGA signals via the HDMI port and your monitor accepts digital and not analogue signals (depends on how old it is). You might need to get a HDMI-VGA convertor otherwise; another option would be to get a newer monitor with HDMI. it's only $5 so worth a try, let us know how it goes. Good luck!

It won't work with it. Dell site lists your graphics as Intel HD 3000 or 4000 which means your CPU (processor) is powering your graphics aka "on board graphics. This monitor does not work with on board graphics. You need one of dedicated graphics card listed (or better) in description of this monitor.

I've looked up your service tag on Dell's support site for your laptop configuration and I can confirm that this screen will work with it.

No, you need something that will connect to a video out on the laptop (VGA, dvi, HDMI) and convert that to display port.
