Hi,
I have an Acer Spin 513-51 58W laptop, which I am hoping to get working with aSamsung Syncmaster 206BW monitor which I bought new in 2007.
This is just a stop-gap measure to allow me some time to save for two state ofthe art monitors; I realize that the monitor will probably not even be able tohandle 1080p.
The Spin 5 has the following connections:
1 x USB 3 ports
2 x USB 2 ports
1 x HDMI port
The Syncmaster has the following connections:
1 x 15 pin D-Sub (RGB IN) port
1 x DVI (DVI IN HDCP) port
I have a few questions about this:
1. Is it possible to get the monitor working with the Spin 5?
2. If it is possible to get the Spin 5 and Syncmaster 206BW to work together,what connections should I use? HDMI on the Spin 5 to DV on the monitor?Or can I connect the the
monitor to one of the USB ports on the Spin 5?
Many thanks in advance for any help you can give me with this.
