Yes, you can hook it up the same way. You can also go another step and do things like split screen between the laptop and monitor - but that you need additional drivers for. Otherwise, you're just projecting the same thing on one or both screens.

Depends on the monitor. If it has a D-sub then it can go in the regular outlet. The other type of connection is a DVI, although a fair amount of LCDs still have D-Sub connection. If it is a DVI, you will need an adapter like this:\nhttp://www.partstore.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductSKU=2450834&s=sspro

At the back of your laptop you will see the S-connector. You need a cable called s-connector cable. You connect that from you laptop to your TV. Then go to your desktop. Right click anywhere on your desktop. Go to properties, then settings, advance, monitor tab, click dual monitor. On your TV put it on video or dvd mode. You should be able to watch movie on your TV coming from your laptop.

Laptops usually have an output for connecting a monitor. When you use that output it may disable the laptop screen. If that is what happened there is probably a key or key combination that could be used to enable your screen again. The key or key combination depends on the laptop so you should check your manual.

No need for a new laptop, painless job infact.\n\nChange the LCD. Go to www.screentek.com and they have a whole list of compatible laptops that the monitor is for.\n\nIn order to get it off, is like snapping the plastic food boxes from restaurants: http://www.screentekinc.com/lcd-removal-instructions.shtml.\n\nOr, buy the screen from eBay, but as it's not new, I don't now how good it still is.

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.

Take a look at a utility called PowerStrip from here: http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/ps.shtm\n\nIt's designed for working with custom resolutions and refresh rates. You can also find more information about hooking up TVs to computers at AVSforum.com

The S-Video connections are normally OUT connections, not IN.  They allow you to send what your monitor sees to a TV or recorder, but not the other way around.\n\nYou need to install some sort of video capture card into your laptop.\n\nThere are several available, both USB and PCMCIA.  The average cost of them is around $75.  Check with your local computer store or electronics store, and they should help you pick which one would be best for your needs.

If your laptop has a yellow video port, with an RCA jack connection, just use a common video cable to hook the laptop's yellow plug with the yellow plug on the TV.  \nIf your laptop has only the external monitor port, you probably won't be able to connect the two without an adapter.

You have to have a video card that is capable. Make sure of that first. Then you either need a s video cable or vga cable. On the back of your tv you should see a plug for one or the other( if your tv is capable) Attach the cable( s video or vga) to your tv and then to your video card on the back of your pc. Right click your desktop. You should then have a display option( on mine it's nvidia display) click on that then go to detect displays. Then on that same window go to current display then move it from your monitor to your tv. Right above that you'll have the option to dual display your comp or however you want to configure it. Good luck. Feel free to e mail me if you have more questions. It sounds like alot but it's really not that hard.

Monitor or screen if it's a laptop.\nSpeakers.\nPrinter.\n\nLots of other devices - but strangely none that are only output and not input too.

Try out in the store where you bought the monitor. Or just try out in a electronic bazzar in ur City.

Usually the CRT/LCD option on a laptop isn't regulated by windows though. hmm.. I'm pretty sure if your laptop has an S-Video out, it also has an SVGA out which you can just plug a normal monitor to it and use the CRT/LCD function on your laptop without problems.

of course, if you have a video card with a svideo out or video out terminal then you can use your ordinary tv as a monitor cause you have a rca input and a coaxial input, but with out these feature on your video card or in your computer if it is onboard video, well there is no way you can use these feature , you have to buy an add on card.
