Nearly all laptops have a VGA out port, designed specifically for a second monitor.
no you can not do this. you can only use an external monitor on the laptop.
difult monitor and external monitor Because you probably have the connection (and ability to operate) a second monitor built in to the laptop. Check the plugs on the side of the laptop, there is no doubt a plug for an additional monitor.
If the IBM laptop you use has a VGA port you just connect your monitor cable directly to the port. Then turn on the laptop and it should install the drivers needed to use the external monitor automatically. If you laptop does not have a VGA port then you will need a "Laptop replica port" to add the VGA port so you can connect the monitor.
Depends on the Laptop and on its graphic card. Some of the laptops support mirroring others mirroring and 'extended display' If you have say DVI and VGA outputs on the laptop you can plug one monitor to one of the monitor outputs and second monitor to the other output.
Yes you can, just use a VGA cable and that will typically allow you to connect a laptop to a monitor. Once you connect the monitor, you need to go to your properties and allow the monitor extend the screen.
Displaying stuff on the monitor.
Yes, It is possible. I have tried it before and it works. Used a KDS monitor.
I think so, but the use of a monitor of some kind is advised as otherwise there would be little or no point having the laptop turned on in the first place.
install the webcam and place it on top of the monitor
You simply have to buy a cable to connect your laptop to the monitor.They cost around five dollars.
This might be possible, yes. Much of this depends upon the graphics chipset and driver in use on your laptop. Many laptop graphics cards will allow you to use the laptop display panel as well as an external monitor at the same time. You may need to update your video drivers if you do not see the options to do that when you look at your display settings. WIndows should recognize that another external monitor is attached. IF will run it with a generic driver which may not be the most suitable. IF you have the driver install it. to manipulate it, go to COntrol Panel, Personalize, Display settings adn click accordingly. this is wehre you do all configuration, settings etc note that you can adjust the positioning fo the 2nd monitor in relation of the ist monitor or notebook. Choose extended if you want to run separate progams or applications on the second monitor. Sometimes when the NB is config. as such, and after disconnecting it, Windoes ( esp on XP), it still thinks that the second monitor is still connected. WHen the application does not appear on the only screen, tehn GO to this section and manuallly check off the second monitor...
Unlike the CRT monitor, LCD doesn't use as much power. So, the battery of the laptop is enough to power its LCD monitor. There is a power supply cables within the laptops. That cables carry the power from the battery to its LCD monitor and other power needed devices. It is the simplest answer of how is the LCD on the laptop powered?
