Hello :) I have a Lenovo G550 laptop and an older HP computer. I would like to know if it is possible to connect the computer to the laptop display as I do not have a separate PC monitor. ?

The screen in the laptop is integrated with the graphics card, if anything, both would have to be turned on. But you can buy a kinescope drug for PLN 50, and LCD 100, 150.

It will be rather difficult, you would need an adapter that acts as a video dump card (the problem is that you need higher resolutions here) e.g. http: //www.epiphan .com / products / dvi-frame-grabbers / Typically, you will not use it as a monitor, and it is better to buy a used LCD - cheaper, for example -

Aj, make this picture laugh more than information Generally, it cannot be done without disassembling the laptop. The simplest solution is to disconnect the matrix from the laptop, connect it to THIS and that controller for the computer. I do not know if the controller you need is available in Poland at all At the bottom of the linked page are links to sample controller auctions on ebay.
