Expanding Your Computer
Connecting a VGA or HDMI Display
Monitor
If you want the benefits of a larger display screen with higher resolution,
you can connect an external display monitor to your computer
Your computer supports a VGA connector and a HDMI connector. HDMI
(High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an audio/video interface that
transmits uncompressed digital data and therefore delivers true HD
quality. As a home theater system most likely includes a widescreen HDTV
and surround-sound system, you can use the home theater system to
view/play media stored on your computer by connecting via the HDMI
interface.
Follow this procedure to connect an external monitor:
1. Turn off the computer.
2. Depending on the type of your monitor, plug the monitor’s signal
connector to the computer’s VGA or HDMI connector.
