since most HP AIO and TouchSmart computers have no video output of any kind, you need to use a USB-to-video adpater to connect a second display to your computer. Amazon sells these. As a starter Try StarTech USB to VGA External Video Card Multi Monitor Adapter - 1920x1200 - USB to VGA External Graphics Card I haven't tried this, but it's supposed to work.

Any suggestions for connecting my HP Pavilion dv6000 notebook to this TV? I know I can accomplish this through a VGA connection or S-Video connection, but I wanted to keep the connection digital quality. Thanks!

Not directly. You need phanton power and an I/O interface. I use mine with a h4n which would get you both power and a usb interface. (The h4n also records away from the computer which can be handy.) You could also get something like Shure's XU2 though I haven't used it so I can't vouch for it.

I use it with my laptop and it works well, you have to place the letters in grnade for greater visualization. to see movies is super, do not need total darkness. I use it day and night. I will buy more to sell in my country, people really liked them.I totally recommend it, the input option is to connect to the pc, the pendrive to dvd and more. I recommend

i tried the wireless Iogear with a movie on a memory stick and it wont give enough bandwith to have a smooth playing on my laptop, so i guess it wont work !, but maybe under the apps that you plan to use it for it gonna be ok !

Yes. It will work with anything that has a USB port and that you can install the software on. Your HP definitely qualifies (in fact, all-in-ones and laptops are what has given this product legs). I use it at work with a laptop that can only drive 2 monitors (internal + 1 external) to create a 3 monitor system.

I got a WD Passport 160 GB USB 2.0 Drive today. - It does not work on my 4-year old Compaq Presario 900 laptop (XP home with SP2). Nothing happens. - So far no trouble running it on my newer HP Pavilion dv4000 (XP home with SP2).With all the comments about working or not working with laptops I keep my fingers crossed! Noticed that reviews earlier this year were far more negative than more recent one's. Did they improve the product??

It would be better you youtube your search using your specific make and modle of computer. most are just plug-n-play but mine the HP DV7 1000series after simple install you have to go into the bios and marry the hard drive so it will be reconised

If you have disk for 8, you can go ahead and try it, but if your hp is registered with hewlet packard, or even out of warranty, call them anyway. They should answer when you tell them what you have hard drive, etc. Mine accepts it. But I would wait until upgradedmine, may not be worth the price

This drive should work fine in your laptop, make sure you have a good set of recovery disc's or if installing a new version of Windows all of the drivers for your laptop. You can find the correct drivers for your machine at HPs website. Edit: It looks like that laptop has two drive bays if you are adding extra storage you shouldn't need recovery disks or drivers.

It worked with a HP 32G SSD I got off ebay. Would think the SSD connections would be standard. It was plug & play for me, using a linux OS.

This unit works great with the Black Caviar 1 TB, I have 3 of them but with windows operating systems running them not SL. I also know that in order for ANY system to "boot" from your BIOS has to be set up to boot from that drive specifically. Since I don't run Apple I can't tell you unless you check with Apple to see if it allows to operate a system from an external drive I would say probably yes. The Startech and the WD go great together for data and I have used it as a boot/operating drive but not with SL.

This doesn't "play" anything. It is a storage device, like any thumb drive or hard drive. If your device is able to access the files you store on the RAVPower FileHub, and that device is able to play .mov files, then you can watch them on your device.

Never tried this but... I believe Cyberlink PowerDVD Ultra can play 3D Blu-rays. Connect Pawtec to laptop and HDMI out from laptop to TV HDMI input. One would expect a 3D capable TV to display the movie properly.

Yes. I was able to present a ppt presentation via a jump drive. However, most of my presentations were via a laptop.

Well, before answering, let me say that this blu-ray is one of the worst pieces of technology that I have ever purchased. However, it will probably connect and work with your desktop monitor but not with your laptop. A laptop's HDMI pushes signal out. It does not receive. A desktop's HDMI receives, it does not push out. I am not 100% sure but that is what I suspect.
