Solve : External monitor to laptop hookup?

Answer»

I want to hook my laptop to my external monitor. Yes I have the VGA hookup...and did that FINE...works great. Now if I close my laptop up the image will not appear on the monitor, right? I still have to USE my laptop keyboard or can I hook up and external mouse and keyboard? My desktop went to hardware heaven a few days ago and my laptop screen is difficult for these old eyes to see , not to mention the strain on my neck from looking down at my laptop on my desk. Can ANYONE help me out ?Thanks in advance  Yes you can hook up an USB mouse and Keyboard to laptops. Quote from: bizzyazab on April 05, 2016, 11:41:07 AM

Yes, it should, as long as you have not got it set up to shut down or sleep when the lid is shut. You can FIND "what happens when I shut the lid" settings in POWER Options. You may also have to make the external monitor your primary display in display settings.
