Original Question

i had seen this really cool lcd monitor hanged on a wall as if it were a projector?

Q. when did people start hanging their pc monitor on the wall?
is it some kind of new way of using the pc?
it looked pretty cool can i do it what kind of size is required for pleasant comfortable use?

A. Most PC monitors can be wall mounted, just like an LCD TV. You will need to buy an LCD wall mounting bracket and ensure the wall you are putting it on can take it, of course.

I did it as a handy way of freenig up desk space. he size depends on how far from your desk you want to hang it. I have mine on the wall immediately behind my desk so a standard 19" was fine, but if i was looking at it across a room I would want something larger. Remember that the bigger the screen the greater the resolution and therefore the better the gfx card yo will need.

Wall mount for my monitor?

Q. I was going to mount my pc monitor but i am not sure if i can buy a generic mount or if it needs to be a particular brand and model, the monitor is an LG Flatron W2252TQ 22"

Thanks in advance

A. Most LCD monitors follow the VESA FDMI mounting specification for which you have many different mounts available. However from what I have read it appears that this monitor is one of the exceptions so you are probably out of luck. Have a look at the back of the unit - there should be four screw holes arranged in a perfect square on a flat mounting plate.

How can i mount a 19" lcd computer monitor on a wall?

Q. I want to mount my computer monitor on the wall with a swing arm. How do i know if it will mount to the back of the monitor?

I want to use the wall mount swing arm so i can get rid of my computer table and have more room.

A. Look for one that has a VESA 100 x 100 bracket ... this is the standard on PC monitors.

The specs for your LCD will specify which Vesa standard bracket it uses (may be Vesa 75 x 75)

Can I use a Step-Down Transformer to lower the output voltage of an AC adapter?

Q. Here is the deal...

I have an IBM LCD monitor that I got on the cheap from Ebay, the issue was that it didn't have a base or a power supply.

Big deal, I thought because the plan was to wall-mount it and I had 6-7 old ac adapters lying around that would have roughly the same voltage and amperage.

So, now that I got it in the mail, I find that it requires a 12v 3.0 amp adapter. Unfortunately, all the adapters I have that provide enough amperage are all 19V or higher.

Back to the question, couldn't I just add a transformer inline with the output cable to step down the voltage to a level that will not fry the monitor?

Where could I find a step-down transformer that small?
The adapters I am looking to use are all old notebook adapters. I imagine these are too well regulated to work considering what you are all telling me.

The main point of this was to figure out a way to do it and avoid having to buy the adapter outright. There is a good level of satisfaction knowing that you were able to avoid spending money by doing things yourself.
I found a 15v 4A adapter, but again it is a notebook adapter. Looks like I will have to suck it up and buy a new one, unless anyone has any other ideas...

A. It depends.
If the adapters you have generate a regulated DC output, then trying to reduce the voltage by running the AC side off a transformer isn't going to be successful.

However, if the adapter produces an unregulated DC output, or an AC output, then if you can find the correct transformer it should work. For example, using a 24V adapter with a transformer sold to run 120V appliances off a 240V mains would give you the 2:1 ratio that you need. You might have to do some wiring. If the output of the adapter is AC, the step-down transformer can go on either the mains side or the output side of the adapter. If the output of the adapter is DC, you would have to put the step-down on the mains side.

I would be a little careful here, though. It is likely that the monitor needs a regulated DC supply, in which case you have to buy something that supplies the required voltage and current. Usually, monitors that I have seen come with a brick power supply similar to what is used for laptops, and those generally provide a high-current, regulated, DC output.

How can I detach my laptop's monitor?

Q. I'd like to detach the screen, then extend the connections it has to the CPU so that the laptop would essentially become a PC with a separate monitor. I plan on wall mounting the Touch Screen LCD, then running a wire/wires to the base of the laptop hidden away.

Any ideas? Has anyone tried such a thing?

A. Its WAY above your head. The mylar strip that sends signals to the monitor tears very easily. I suggest you forget the idea.

How many monitors on a single laptop?

Q. How many LCD monitors can I hook up to a Gate way FX laptop? I have seen have multiple screens mounted on there wall hooked up to their computer. Which I want that! lol, I do have a monitor port and a HDMI port. Is there a spilter or somthing?

A. Actually because your laptop might have many outputs doesn't mean it will support them all at once. My computers graphics card has 1 VGA 1 DVI and 1 S-video but it can only run 2 screens at once. So most likely you will only be able to run 2 screens at once.

At my work has steel flexible framed wall with drywall and I want to mount a LCD monitor?

Q. I have a cantilever mount system to hold the lcd monitor. But with the steel flexible framed wall I am unsure how to mount something without ripping apart the steel wall and dry wall. The cantilever mount system and lcd monitor weigh approx 30-40 lbs. The cantilever system can hold the monitor about 2 feet away from the wall. The monitor probably weighs 15 lbs.

A. Try using wood to connect a minimum of 2 (3would be better) of the steel stringers together.Now you can mount the cantilever to the board.
