After connecting this HP to my Panasonic ST50 tv with HDMI cable, how do I set up laptop so as I surf the net, I can see the image on both screens?

Just connect to the Internet via your wireless modem and your ready to go. Happy surfing. Works perfectly with my LG 46" lcd tv via the HDMI.

Using an HDMI cable or VGA cable into the Television and under Settings in your Computer select duplicate screen.

I'm not sure if this wil be a helpful answer, but here goes ... The HP monitor gets it's signal and power through the USB port, and it required that I install a special driver. It doesn't use a video card, external or otherwise. I use this USB monitor attached to my laptop, to which I also attach an external VGA monitor. So I get three screens but not in the way you want to do it. I have had absolutely no trouble with the USB monitor at all. I would suggest giving it a try. Order it and see if it works, and return it if it doesn't.

Most likey not, most computers will prioritise one output over another or have you select what output you want it in. And if the computer doesnt have you select it your tv will. For example "hdmi 1" or hdmi 2." id advise searching "how to set up a 3 output display with laptop" on youtube.

The HP has a number of different input connectors any of which can be used equally well. Look at your lap-top and find the connector for the monitor. Take a piece of paper and trace the ouline. Make a small drawing of the pins. Do the same for the Monitor. The go to somewhere like Best Buy with the two pics and ask the for a cord.

That is how my computer is setup. Check to make sure that you have HDMI plugs on both devices.

The HP laptop, does it have a s_video port to output an image or to accept an image from an s_video source? I don't know about your situation, but I was able to hook an ipod to the mini projector and get a good video to play (on the front surface of my refrigerator, no less).

I've connected my laptop to the TV via HDMI and achieved 1080P. What is the maximum resolution on your laptop? Check your graphics settings. Are you duplicating, extending or using only the TV as the monitor? These settings will determine what resolution you can achieve via HDMI.

Verify your computer has a HDMI port. Purchase an HDMI cable. Plug HDMI cable into tv, then into computer. Turn tv to whatever input that HDMI port is and the computer screen will show up on the tv. We use for episodes that did not Dvr and stream Internet shows on tv

It sounds like you did everything correct. Try other ports on the TV. My tv has PC, HDMI 1 and 2 and when I have my laptop hooked up to the tv I have to use the HDMI 2 setting. Good luck.

I don't have S-Video out on my laptop, so I can't help you there. I do have VGA out and connecting my PC to the HDTV involved nothing more than hooking up the cables between the 2 units, and selecting the appropriate input source on the TV (usually by pushing the SOURCE button on the TV remote several times until the right one shows up). Your laptop may also have an external video output button that you have to press. Most laptops I've seen put these functions up in the F-keys. My Acer, for example is F5 + the Fn key.

I purchased "1080p Hdmi Male input to VGA + Audio Output Cable Converter Adapter for Hdtv Pc" at Amazon's suggestion. I was unable to view laptop images on my LG HDTV. The laptop has a Nvidia card and works with analog TV. My solution was to purchase another computer (used) with an HDMI output - not very economical but it did work. KS

Once you've connected the pc to the TV, try holding down Function + F5 to tell laptop to display on TV

Ya that's the screen. One thing to note, when you get it, the cable on your laptop that connects to the screen may not reach the port on the screen when you go to put everything back together. There should be an extension cable that comes with this package, just plug in the laptop cable into the back of the extension cable. Also, you should definitely tape them together with some electrical tape because I've had issues with the cable becoming loose and my screen getting all out of whack. So just be aware of that, if your new screen isn't working properly make sure the cables are all properly connected before returning it. Ya that's the screen.

If your laptop has a VGA out or S-Video connection all you need is the appropriate cable.v if you have HDMI, you will need an active HDMI to VGA adapter. Keep in mind that this will not pass sound, and you need an extra USB port to power the active adapter. DO NOT buy the HDMI to USB cable, it will not work.Otherwise, it is an excellent projector for the money. I picked up a refurbished unit for $169, and it works wonderfully. Steam streaming to a 100" screen is awesome looking on it. This is playing with all the graphics at max.

It didnt work with my computer, I was unable to send any video signal to my PANASONIC HD TV. I try changing several resolutions of my computer, to look which was compatible and was a fiasco. Take care,

No, just get a USB to HDMI adapter or if your laptop has HDMI you can go that route as well, some have big or mini HDMI so just look up you model and see what connections you have. This should help you!

very simple solution, hook up your laptop or borrowed laptop to the unit's front hdmi input and the problem would be solved, having first downloaded the firmware update to the laptop. Hope that helps.
