display - Laptop screen as a PC monitor?






I have a PC and a laptop. My monitor is currently broken and I want to use my laptop's screen for my PC. I can stick my monitor cable into the laptop but I don't know how to make it work.


Laptop is running on windows 7 and PC on XP. Basically I want to work on my PC and see results on the laptop screen. Is that even possible, and if it is, how??


Answer



You can't do this. The vga socket on your laptop is for output, not for input. You can do Laptop->Monitor but not PC->Laptop Screen.
