Using laptop LCD on desktop monitor.?

Q. I have my broken laptop, but the LCD still works fine. I also have a monitor, but the LCD is cracked. I was wondering if i could connect the laptop LCD to the monitor cables and stuff and use the monitor for my desktop.

A. No. The connection toa laptop bard for the monitor is totally different to the connection to the VGA port. And the VGA port on the laptop is an output, the same as the desktop. Connecting 2 out puts together gives you no usable signal and it is possible for exactly opposite output voltages along the same cable from each machine to destroy the board of one or both of them. Which would possibly destroy the desktop.


Can I use a LCD tv for a desktop computer monitor?
Q. If so, what would be a good brand to get?
I was wanting a 26-32 inch but for a monitor it's more than $1,000 but if it's a tv, it's much less.

A. Any LCD HDTV that has an HDMI or VGA port are computer-ready.

A video card that has either a DVI or HDMI port will work with the HDMI input on an LCD HDTV. (Yes, DVI is compatible with HDMI).

If your computer only has a VGA port, then you need an HDTV that has a VGA port too. (Unfortunately, VGA is NOT compatible with HDMI).

I'm using a 52" LCD HDTV as my monitor. It's connected to my computer using a DVI-to-HDMI cable and it works perfectly: http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/armchairaviator/computer/IMG_0880c.jpg

Mine is a Sony Bravia. It's got presets optimized for displaying computer text and images, and it looks fabulous as shown on my photo. I'm running 1920x1080 resolution on it (aka 1080p High Definition).

Hope this helps.
