Hooking a monitor up to your laptop can help you multitask and give your eyes a break. But the setup process may seem a bit daunting—especially if you've never done it before.Connecting your laptop to a monitor is simply a matter of using the appropriate cable; most Windows laptops use HDMI or USB, and MacBooks will use USB or Thunderbolt.After connecting the monitor, choose to duplicate or extend the display in the Display Settings windows on Windows or System Preferences on a Mac. You might need to get an adapter to connect your monitor to a MacBook if the display doesn't have the appropriate connector for your laptop (USB-C or Thunderbolt).

First, identify your laptop's ports. Depending on the model, your laptop may have limited port options—in which case you'll need to buy an adapter to connect the monitor.

Once you've plugged the monitor into the computer and a power source, Windows™ should automatically detect it—if it doesn't, click Start > Settings > System > Display. Under the Multiple displays header, click the Detect button.

From the Display interface, select the secondary display, then select Extend these displays or Duplicate these displays from the menu at the bottom of the screen under Multiple displays.
After you've selected your display, select Apply (or may say Keep Changes if using Windows 10).
No matter how big your laptop is, connecting it to a separate monitor is always a great way to add extra space and keep your windows organized. It's also especially useful for gamers who want to play their favorite titles on a bigger, faster, and more vibrant screen — even the best gaming laptops can benefit from that.
