How do I connect my Toshiba laptop circa 2006 that does not have a port for DVI ? I only have several USB ports, an ethernet port, and a 15 pin port

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.

The 15 pin port you mentioned is called VGA port. You want a VGA to HDMI cable/converter or VGA to DVI cable/converter depending on what you want to connect your laptop to. The ethernet and USB ports can't be used to display video (unless you buy an expensive box/device that will help you do that).Note that a VGA port doesn't supply audio information unlike HDMI, there are some converter/cable on the market which can also provide you with some audio by taking the information from your laptop's 3.5mm headphone jack (find them in Google.com or Amazon.com).A VGA signal is also an analog signal rather than digital (unlike DVI or HDMI), so investing in a good quality cable/converter should also be considered.

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.

USB ports are 5 volt and your laptop needs more volts then that ( the Toshiba Satellite laptop power supply I checked was 19 volts). So I would say no.

Dell has a port replicator for this laptop. Additionally, you can use other generic docks/replicators from third party vendors.

You can use that, but I have never had much luck with the USB to VGA adapters. you may want to try to use something like this:StarTech DVI to VGA Cable Adapter, M/F (DVIVGAMF)

I use the Microsoft driver version: 6.1.7601.17514 from 2006 from Windows 7 Home Premium. http://www.drivermanager.com/en/drivers.php?Brand=Microsoft&Logo;=microsoft&gclid;=CK-V15qBmrwCFYY1QgodwSEAsw. I do not know your operating system but I would start with their support page for drivers. I did not use Toshiba's site: http://support.toshiba.com/support/modelHome?freeText=TSL632M

It comes with a 15-pin VGA cable and a DVI cable. Your laptop should have a 15-pin VGA monitor output connector.

I was hesitant to answer because I'm not sure. I tried to convert the DVI to HDMI for a laptop to be on my 4 port switch and had a hell of a time finding an adapter to work. I'd research the adapters and find one that says they did that sucessfully... that would be your answer.

I don't know. The 4 Port DVI version I have has a shared USB port on it that can toggle to the machine using the Video / keyboard / mouse. You can share one USB on that for sure but you you have that usb fan out into the four on your monitor things might get tricky.

I just purchased the exact adapter and it worked fine. The only difference is My computer runs window 8. I would call Toshiba and ask if it is compatible with window 7. good luck.

The Intel Platform installer, available on the Toshiba support web site, has the new driver updates. Bios V1.6 is also there if needed. Other than that, the HDMI cable should be V1.4.

Yes, The Toshiba has four USB ports, you would need to unplug the wireless mouses' USB connector from your dell and plug it into any one of the Toshiba's. Be careful, It's easy to break a USB connection on a laptop.

It is DVI to HDMI .. yes it connects a laptop to a TV for example .. but u need to make sure your laptop supports DVI output directly .. if not, ull need to buy the DVI to VGA adaptor because 90% laptops has a VGA output for sure .
