You have no idea how this quick video has helped me out for the past few years. Starting from when I referenced this video during the pandemic to now, this has been a great help. I constantly reference this video when I need a refresher on how to set up multiple displays on my laptop. Thank you for your time and ministry.

[@survivorpro6981]

Honestly one of the best tutorials

[@jasonpapi23]

I agree with you

[@rprabas1]

Me too

[@nogoodname7090]

Not one of. IT IS THE BEST

[@kirstenporter7900]

This is so amazing and very practical. You cut out all the extra nonsense for obtaining a dual monitor system. Thank you!

[@raven55six]

THE MOST SIMPLIFIED AND POINT TO POINT tutorial ever! Usually when you search something like "How to connect laptop to external monitor", KZbin will show you a detailed heart transplant surgery and then say just plug two screens in the end. But this, this was neat! Please learn new things and make tutorials about them, I'll watch even if I don't need to. 😂😂

[@nairiandiaz5300]

Omg this just saved my behind, with this work from home stuff

[@satyamcomputers1340]

wow...right

[@shuncai]

OMG thank you!! I have a laptop and wanted to get a bigger screen because I'm about to start school soon. I dont want to get a computer with the mouse and keyboard. I wanted to use the monitor as a regular computer and still be able to use my laptop at the same time. This really helped

If you don't want to go into display settings, you can hold down windows logo key+P, and you have every option there too.

[@lemonlive5027]

I’m late to the party but thank you for this video. Your the only person who can explain it throughly

[@jordanszz]

this is the only person literally on youtube who shows ‘actually’ how to connect the laptop to monitor and not dual monitor

[@mandis119]

oh my gosh thank you! my coworker gave me a HDMI cord last year, and i finally got the patience to play with it, and it dawned on me to search "HDMI" in the seach menu on my laptop, and your youtbe video appeared! If i only knew it be this easy I would've done this a year ago!!!

Someone give this human a honourable mention

[@nancy4879]

THANK YOU!!! I'm 57 and am getting a new monitor to hook up to my laptop tomorrow ( I went all out...it's a 24 incher ;) ...could NOT find a how-to video that didn't use a lot of tech speak or was 30 minutes long!!! You are a JEWEL!!!

[@nancy4879]

Hey, darlin' !!! Nancy from Houston here...and I'm looking at you from my new monitor that you helped me set up! Q: I assume I keep my laptop on...this is just a screen, so the laptop has to be on for it to work, 'cuz the monitor is only connected to the internet through the laptop, right? (sorry if this is a silly question, but this is all new to me ) Thanks again for all you're help...and now I'm gonna look to YOU for any future help! :)

[@AdmireR6S]

Nancy yo i believe u can turn off ur laptop if it doesnt work change some settings or just search on googlr

[@DeeManRodgers]

Thank you for a clear and precise walk through on this topic. Thinking of getting a hdmi /usb monitor for this very reason and since I'm a fledgling twitch streamer it'll be easier for me to read my chat or look up stuff while not having to look at my phone lol

[@RobbyCrisostomo]

Thank you. Needed this since I was gonna ask my dad if he could get me a monitor

[@mikeybanke6670]

My monitor says there’s no signal, even when I set the signal to hdmi. I also went into my display settings and it didn’t detect any monitors.

[@Riska7]

[@schieffisclestick4873]

Can you turn off the computor? And if so will the monitor still be running?

hey plz help me . when i set monitor as main display then i am not able to get sound from my headphones when they r connected to laptop. then i tried to connect it to monitor but still sound is coming from my monitor speakers .

[@DaDevKing]

yea you can go to the settings and change moniter display settings, or you can hold (windows logo + p) to change it faster

[@Maki-mz5ri]

[@myaveditor-terynashleyemil7142]

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe how simple it really was to get my HDMI monitor to work with my laptop. I knew it had to be in Display settings BUT, I had never done it before with my laptop. :-)

[@judianhunter8643]

Great video, questions do you need to install an operating system on the monitor for this to work? Are just a monitor and it will connect to the system you already have on the laptop?

[@jawuzie]

No, it connects to the system on the laptop.

[@crystalgolden-hann1316]

Thank you very much, you helped me get my screens in order and to work ! You made me happy thank you so much. Leaving a sub.

[@ibrathebest8]

I really need you to see this comment. So, if you buy a wireless keyboard and mouse, would you connect them to your small monitor and make your big monitor your main device and then the keyboard and mouse would be connected to the big monitor? Idk if that made sense but I really need you to answer. I’m really stressed out because I don’t wanna buy a desktop to build because it looks complicated, so I’m looking for videos without the desktop!

[@jawuzie]

If you connect your wireless mouse and keyboard to your small monitor (like a laptop) and then you plug in your big monitor, the mouse and keyboard will work on both monitors.

[@ibrathebest8]

@@jawuzie one last question. How would this work with two monitors? Would you plug in the second monitor with your laptop?

[@michellecruz2626]

thanks for the video, but I have a question. if you have a wired keyboard and wired mouse where should they be plugged in? the laptop or monitor? i will be using the monitor as the main screen.

[@jawuzie]

Hi, Michelle. Your mouse & keyboard should be plugged in to your laptop.

[@ricobrazzyy8234]

So to use a mouse and keyboard do you have to connect to the laptop or could I just connect it to the monitor?

[@jawuzie]

Yes, you'll have to connect the laptop.

[@VMathisEntertainment]

Best Tutorial on this topic! Thank you!!

[@akuintanyumin]

Thank you so much for making this video! after 1 year this video still help me a lot. I thought my pc had a problem...

[@ProAtFruit]

Did you plug in the other monitor with the laptop on? I heard that if you plug in a monitor to a laptop with the laptop on it could break. And also I’ve connected a monitor to my moms laptop but I doesn’t use an hdmi cable it uses an vga cable

[@freshproductz238]

Helped me soooo much with typing a paper. Thank you so much

[@eilishkelly2545]

Because monitors don't have speakers will any sound on the second monitor come through on the laptop or do I still need speakers?

[@holistichealthcareltd3498]

THANKS it's not clear where about the cables is it HDMI to HDMI connection? does the monitor have an HDMI port as well? if it doesnt' we would need another cable like VGA etc? Im still confused about the cables and where they connect and what ports my laptop has

[@konkoor881]

I have. Question so if I do it separately and overclock the 2nd display will my 1st one be affected?.

[@jawuzie]

I'm not entirely sure.

[@LEARNING-MEDICAL-EDUCATION]

do we need to give power to monitor separately or the monitor works with power supply of laptop?

[@jawuzie]

The monitor will need power on its own. It normally comes with a power cable.

[@LEARNING-MEDICAL-EDUCATION]

@@jawuzie in my area, power often goes. so, it means i will also need to buy UPS along with monitor

[@laddufn]

Thank you i was planning on getting a monitor but was not sure if my laptop could connect but this helped out thanks

[@zen3055]

Hm is there a way where I can shut my laptop but not turn it off so my monitor is like the main display of it?

[@AskaComputerGeek]

Instead of 'extending the desktop display' in the settings, you will need to 'duplicate desktop display on display 2' or 'show desktop only on display 2'. Then, you can follow this guide to let your laptop continue to run with the lid closed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3u2dJ2ImaxnhJI If you have the lid closed you'll have to connect a separate keyboard and mouse though if you want to use those.

[@gregorywandersaround6178]

Thank you for taking the time to show me this. You are the best. ;)

[@tobythetram8945]

im assuming its the same way to revert it? (just making it only one monitor)

[@MLDEDXX]

u should be able to just unplug the link between the laptop and monitor

[@khasiah532]

can you connect a separate keyboard and mouse to the monitor and use it?

[@AskaComputerGeek]

If you are asking if you can use a separate keyboard and mouse instead of the ones built into your laptop then the answer is yes but you will still connect the extra keyboard and mouse to the laptop ports not the monitor itself.

[@ibraheem190u]

Thanks. Can I close my laptop as in sleep mode and still have the external display running?

[@jawuzie]

Nope.

[@duncanmyers9025]

You can go to power settings and set your laptop to not go to sleep when the lids closed (only when plugged in)
