It depends, based on if they are running the same operating system, and how they are connected. They may need to be networked to communicate, through wireless or with a ethernet cable.

Connect the TFT monitor to power as usual, and the other VGA cord connect to the laptop, you will find a Video Port at the back. This port is also used for projection on presentations using a projector and you are done. You might need to use the "fn" key plus the F4 or F5 key to shift the modes, or if you can't do this reboot the machine after you have connected the laptop if there is no display on the new tft screen.

They are the same, lol.\n\nThe differences lie in Tablet PCs (which have a graphics-tablet note-taking touch screen), and normal laptops.\n\nHP do some good cheap laptops. If you wanna look the biz, get an Alienware Sentia.

It depends. There are three factors to consider:\n\n1) What kind of RAM is in each laptop. Most newer laptops take a standard SODIMM.\n2) The speed of the RAM. If the processor speeds are very different or the bus speeds are different, the old RAM may not be able to keep up. Best case, the motherboard will figure that out and just slow down. Worst case, the machine won't boot or will crash until you remove the memory.\n3) Does the new laptop have free slots (or can you remove a smaller module)?\n\nOne trick is to pretend you are buying extra memory for each and see if the memory selector guides on the Web show you the same memory. This isn't foolproof. So looking at http://www.vikingcomponents.com/configurator/default.asp and telling it ze4400 we find that this uses 266Mhz memory with OEM #s of F4695A (256M) or F4696A, DC390A (512M). It tells us this is DDR266/PC2100 SO DIMM.\n\nHowever, I didn't find an Acer Aspire 3610. So dance over to Acer's web site. Here it is:\nhttp://us.acer.com/acereuro/page9.do?dau34.oid=11650&UserCtxParam=0&GroupCtxParam=0&dctx1=25&CountryISOCtxParam=US&LanguageISOCtxParam=en&crc=2321137947\n\nAccording to that page:\n512MB (512MB installed in one of two memory slots) DDR2 400 SDRAM \n\nSo that means it is DDR2 400 -- The old laptop is DDR 266. So probably won't work. If it does work it will slow the new laptop significantly.\n\nSorry!

All those connectors on the back are probably for output.  You'll need a video capture device to get a video input to your pc.\n\nThese are available with USB - which you'll need for a laptop - and run anywhere from $30 up.  You can snag them on ebay for pretty cheap.

A laptop will take up less space, plus you'll be able to carry it to class if allowed, and it will help with note-taking when you're studying at the library. You'll even be able to use it to record lectures.\n\nA desktop, on the other hand, will give you more computing power for the money, is generally easier (and less expensive) to repair or upgrade, and being less portable, it's also harder to steal. Or lose.

If it is a really good lap top, with the latest everything, probably!  Good luck!

You need to set up seperate hardware profiles. Just go to Help in the start menu and do a search for hardware profiles to learn how.

if it's don't work at all then it isn't magnet  issue ... i  think your lap top has another issue and it's an old one since they previously replace RAM and motherboard twice

yes, try to connect the 2 PC together some how (seriel cable is the best way- both end should be male (have the little pins- needles if you want)), and configure you game's network so the computers can see each other, it should be very easy.\nhave fun.

Yes, on a number of fronts. \n\nA desktop PC is less portable, but usually more powerful, and more flexible with regard to upgrades that are possible.\n\nA laptop will usually come with a less powerful processor, because of the heat generated, and usually you have less options with regard to upgrades. \n\nLaptop machines are usually more expensive to buy and to repair when they go wrong.

The remote control on your laptop is just like the remote control on your TV.  It was NOT designed for transferring data; that is why it is "oblivious" to your attempts.\n\nYou need a "data transfer" type of IR connection.  You MAY be able to buy an accessory that will plug in to allow what you want to do.  Check with HP and/or your cellphone provider.

On the screen top right click. Click on arrange icons by, make sure the "show desk top icons " is checked.

You don't have to take apart your desktop PC. Get a "USB to USB Datalink Cable" USB 2.0 compatible. This adapter is intended for data exchange between two PCs via USB. The supplied software has a screen similar to the Windows Explorer and provides a simple and effective user environment.

Basically any monitor is compatible with any desktop computer. It may even be connected to a laptop. Before buying a new one. You may want to check the display settings in your control panel (System/Device Manager). Make sure that the correct drivers for the video card and monitor. You may have to start-up in safe mode in order to do this. What I did before to solve this problem is to delete the monitor entry in the device manager and restarted the PC. Windows will automatically detect the monitor connected to the PC. Same is true with the display card if you decide to delete the entry for it. But it may require you to install the video card driver. \n\nPlease note that if your old monitor is 15" and you buy a 17/19" monitor, you may have problems if you don't correct the settings in control panel. Monitors of different sizes operates on different frequencies and may give you the same problem of monitor shutting down during windows boot-up/start-up.

It really depends upon your budget.  You might look in the local newspaper or if your parents are willing to help in the search go to google and search for "used laptops" or "refurbished laptops".  The online sites often offer less expensive options than local sites.  My son is in 8th grade and all you need to browse the web is 128MB of RAM and an older P3 or even a P2 laptop.  I'm not sure what the issue is with your existing desktop.  If you are on a modem, then the issue is more the speed of your link to Internet than the computer itself.

look on the make of the computer and there should be a plug-in that should have a keyboard by it and you have to put the cord of the keyboard in it but don't bend any prangs or your in trouble.
