How does LCD monitor from a laptop work and comunicate with the motherboard?

Q. Hello everyone,

As far as know most laptops LCD monitors are connected to the video card on the motherboard by a video cable. The LCD also has AC/DC inverter that converts low voltage DC power to higher voltage AC for a backlilght bulb. Do all laptops today this type of structure? Do all monitors today have backligh bulb?

Thanks in advance.

A. well no laptop would be a laptop w/o a backlight bulb, and no, some factories still make the old laptops that dont go w/ that layout structure

How do I network an lcd monitor to my laptop?

Q. I just got this lcd monitor so I could network it to my laptop. By network, I mean having the laptop screen like it usually is but have the lcd screen so that its another screen so I can put other windows on there. I know how to connect them so they are the same exact screen but thats not what i want. I want to know how to use the laptop screens like normal and the lcd like another seperate screnn. I hope you can understand what I am saying. Thanks for you help!

A. What your trying to do is to run your laptop screen and the LCD screen as 2 seperate displays. This can be done in Win XP, if you right click on the main window and select properties, settings, and make sure that you can see 2 monitors in your drop down menu.
Make sure you have the LCD monitor connected.
There is a guide under Windows, Help and support, type in: dual monitors and it guides you thru the set up.
