I have a pc and a laptop but from time to time i need to travel abit and i dont have a Portable screen at hand, so i need to access my Computer sometimes but i cant. Can any one help me?? plz
Opps, i forgot the laptop has a S video and Vga outputs. and i have a new Graphics card that has a dvi video input and a vga as well.
Umm why don't you use your laptop only? Why do you need another pc? Anyway you can just use a vga cable to plug into the monitor I believe. I'm not too sure though.
well i need the PC because It has all my personal stuff onit like my family pics, my msn details (which i can never rember) and all my emails. So i need to get access to it When i am travelling some how
Did you try just plugging in a VGA cable? I honestly don't know much about laptops so I don't really have to much to offer in the way of advice.
well i went out the other day and brought a male to male VGA cable to see if i could connect them both togther and use some of the hot keys on the laptop to display the pc on the monitor, but it wouldnt let it though i really am keen to do this as my pc is much faster and has a few program's on it that the laptop cant even hold let alone run.
As far as I know, the VGA port on a laptop is output, not input. Don't think you can use it the other way round.
wizkid005, what you want to do you can't do as no laptop can be used in the way you want just for the screen for another pc. get a lcd screen & a power inverter to power your lcd off the cigerette lighter.
it can b done... if ure pc has a s-video out u could buy a tv tuner for the laptop and u could c the pc on the laptops screen
well as long as it works and it is done on the cheap (as i cant really afford to travl around with things that are expensive and that cant be covered), how would i be able to do this???
u will need a tv tuner for laptop or a usb one and make sure the tv tuner supports s-video and ure video card of ure desktop too oh u could get tv tuners for less than 100usd a good one costs about 50-70
