How do you hook up a laptop to a telly?

How can I hook up a laptop to another screen, when the laptop screen doesn't work?

  • Our laptop screen does not work. It's completely broken (it IS broken, not just off or something). The actual computer does work however. I have an HDMI cord, and the laptop has a HDMI output socket. I have tried just plugging it in, but I think I need to change the output from the laptop. How can I do this? It's Windows 7.

  • Answer:

    see your hdmi wont work instead use the monitor plug which is of 15 pins and insert the 15 pin socket from other monitor to your laptop of equivalent socket.. your problem will solve

There is usually a button on the keyboard. Typically a function key. It looks like a square with a line on the left or right side. Its your default screen shift button I guess. I had this problem, that's how I dealt with it.

That's nearly impossible to do since you need to see where the settings are. You'd have to somehow manage to open Control panel and change display settings on your broken screen.
