Most laptops have a VGA port on the back that can accept a CRT or LCD monitor. You connect the external monitor and on most laptops hit Fn + F8 (two keys at the same time) to switch the video from the laptop screen to the external monitor. If your laptop has a different combination of keys just look for something like "CRT/LCD" printed on one of the function keys.

I hope this helps. If it does - please return an mark this as "solved"
