See if the pin configuration on your cable matches the pin configuration on your PC. If it does, your good to go. What you may have on your PC is a VGA port and that will not work.

In theory it would. As long as the TV has an HDMI port. It would act as a screen for the monitor.

As far as i'm aware yes the cable is bi-directional and if you connect it to a DVI port you can then connect that to HDMI TV but remember you will still not get sound through HDMI in that setup unless your laptop SPECIFICALLY supports sound out through DVI (not all do.)

Hmmmm..I am not really sure...what I did is before I purchased I took my phone with the webpage of the picture of this cable to best buy and ask a salesman from there if it would work. Wished I could help more! .good luck!

Thats all I did with this cable. Just plug it into your comp, or dvd player and it should work like a charm.

Your Acer has a DVI port. Yes you can use this cable. However, you won't be able to have the sound since this cable carries only the image. But you can also buy an audio cable that you'll connect to your Acer headphone and to your tv headphone input or tv audio input. I did exactly what I just explained with my Toshiba laptop. I've been using that for years.

Yes, you can attach a laptop through the vga or hdmi port. Netflix and all other internet based providers are available this way.

The easiest way would be with an HDMI cable (assuming your laptop has one).

No u need a mini or micro hdmi to hdmi adapter depending if u have micro or mini this one is a mini display port which is different

You would likely need an adapter or two. This does not have an HDMI port in the laptop, so you would have to convert a VGA connection to HDMI. You might be better suited with a Chromecast or ROKU device if you want to stream content to your TV from your network.

No, you need something that will connect to a video out on the laptop (VGA, dvi, HDMI) and convert that to display port.

It just depends on what kind of jack you have. Many laptops these days come standard with HDMI jacks. In that case, you can just easily plug in this cable and the screen will pop up on your TV. Easy as that. If the laptop has some other monitor connection such as DVI, then you would need a separate HDMI adapter to use this cable. As for the S4, you will definitely need an HDMI adapter to use these cables with it. Samsung makes one that you can buy separately, but I'm sure there are plenty of knock offs out there. Hope this helps.

You may already have an HDMI. The first thing is to look carefully at your ports, also check the rear of your laptop. Some manufacturers put ports on the rear for docking stations. You will find that HDMI looks very similar to USB ports. DVI ports have a more rounded edge but HDMI is boxy like USB. Push come to Shove, tell me the make and model and I will look it up...One thing that is a decent alternative is gettin a 9 pin D-shell to HDMI or DVI depending what your needs are. Most laptops have a VGA out which is a standard monitor connection that preceded DVI and HDMI. If you also need sound, you will want to get a mini stereo plug (headphone jack), to connect to a speaker system. You may already have an HDMI.

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've never seen a laptop with an HDMI port but, if your laptop has one, it should work. I used this cable to connect my iPad to a TV. I had to first by an Apple adaptor; the adaptor connects to the Ipad and the HDMI cable then connects to both the adaptor and the TV. This cable works great for my needs!

No, this display is NOT compatible with the Acer ASPIRE E5-571P SERIES laptops.

It really depends on your laptop and the connections available. There are several different adapters available for HDMI. For instance you can get HDMI to Display port, HDMI to DVI, and so on. Keep in mind what you will be able to do with HDMI will be by the limitations of the buss (DVI as an example) you adapt to.

No, VGA has to be the source. You can use our HDMI to VGA adapter: http://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-Gold-Plated-Adapter-USB-Power/dp/B00879DM56/ Please make sure your laptop has a HDMI port.

Just googled your notebook and a you tube video show that you need a mini hdmi to hdmi cable, not a micro hdmi to hdmi cable. The HDMI cable you are asking about is a micro so it would not work. Get a mini HDMI to HDMI cable.

You have the required HDMI port, so chances are very good it will work. I run my month old Asus notebook through it's HDMI port and the TV picture is great. Only downside is I wish I could get this cable in a 15 foot length since my TV room is large.

This computer has a Micro HDMI port. If you need regular size HDMI, you would need to use an adapter or get a cable from Micro HDMI to HDMI.

Yes, its the only mode I use. The Acer has both VGA and HDMI ports on the left side. For newer smart TV's use the HDMI port (HDMI cable street cost about $8) for best quality. Older TV's may have only a VGA monitor port so use that. Once its all connected it automatically detects the remote monitor and displays a graphic requesting you assign the principle monitor to be utilized. Job done enjoy the much greater display.
