Hey
I am interested in buying a 24" monitor for my laptop.
Before i do that i figured i ask if it is even possible to connect to my laptop. I see here on my laptop that i have what i recognize as a monitor outlet.
But there might be other issues? Anything to do with the graphics card (have geforce 7300 go)?
I am really ignorant when it comes to computers, so please - easy on the language (-:
Thanks !

We need the resolution of the monitor but it should be fine with the VGA output on the laptop.
-
Still ok?
Thanks -
Of the external monitor, not your laptop. If your external display has VGA just try it. It should work fine.

A 24 inch monitor better not be 1280x800. You'd be hard pressed to find a 24 inch monitor below 1920x1080.

Anyway, OP if you have the laptop that is in your sig you cannot connect to a 24" External by HDMI.
You have to use the VGA connection that is on your laptop. Now because VGA is an analog connection instead of digital(HDMI), it won't look as good. -
So i guess i just have to go and check it out. That means taking my laptop to a store and plugin it into the monitor i want to buy (it is 1080P by the way). -
Assuming the monitor has a VGA input (which most should), then yes you can use it. You just won't be able to use HDMI.
