    How can i use a laptop screen as a monitor only?

    Hi, I have a Dell Latitude 3320 laptop computer which I use to connect to the internet. However, the screen of this 3320 laptop is only 13 inches and I’m finding this screen size too small to use effectively.

    However, I also have a Dell Inspiron 17 inch laptop, but I don’t like to connect this to the internet

    My question to you is: is there any way I can use my 17 inch Dell latitude laptop as a screen/monitor only, and connect my small Latitude 3320 to it ( so that i can work through the internet on the Latitude 3320, but see what I am doing on my 17 inch Dell Inspiron screen)?

    I’d appreciate any help anyone can give me about this.

    Not possible as notebook type computers only have video output ports and no input ports.

    I hope that this answers your question but being aware that your only previous thread concerned a work computer so breached PCHF Terms and rules this thread will be marked and closed.
