Acer aspire 3610 can i use my laptop to connect to lcd tv i have vga output

...

VGA Driver? Does your tv have a VGA Connection? Have you selected PC or HDMI as your input source on the TV? Have you hit the FN Function Key on the laptop + the corresponding F1 thru F12 key that displays the image on the TV?

Press and Hold the FN key then hit the correct F1 thru F12 key that displays on the tv. The correct F1 thru F12 key will probably have LCD/CRT on it or it might have the icon of a display.

For Drivers: They won't be called VGA but either (Display, Video or Graphics Drivers)
Get onlineand got to www.google.com In the google search box type: "AcerSupport" (without the quotes). Look for downloads and drivers. Enter your model number and operating system when requested. Download andinstall the drivers.

I am not familiar with your tv but the normal process is to change press the button combinations on your laptop so it is outputing the picture and then change the tv input to RGB. (Most laptops use function and F7 to activate LCD output & Input button on TV remote to change to RGB mode.)

Check the VGA cable is fully connected at both ends.

Hope this helps.

The LCD TV does not have the software installed on it to integrate with the Pen drive. That is why. Pen drives are meant for input and output of data via computers with USB ports. The pieces of software required to make a computer recognize and interact with a Pen drive (or indeed any other external flash, solid state or hard disk drive based external storage devices) are USB and Storage Device Drivers built-into a computer's Operating System. Your TV does not have such drivers installed on it because it does not have an internal Storage Device to interact with external storage devices.
Your notebook can connect to the LCD TVs VGA Port by connecting a VGA Cable from the Port to the Notebooks own VGA Port -> press and hold the Fn key bottom left of the keyboard -> press the Function key at the top of the keyboard bearing the image of two monitors -> release both keys -> use the TV's remote to select Menu -> Input/Source -> PC.

HI,
there is cable converter that you can use which is a vagfe to hdmi. you can get it from any computer shop.

IMake sure that you have the laptop for an VGA OUTPUT. When you toggle between the function keys. When your laptop LCD goes out it is in VGA OUT mode....when you toggle again it should be in LCD/VGA OUT (both TV and laptop should display). You need to set the TV to VGA mode as well...otherwise you might not get an output. If you still have a problem then test on a regular monitor to see if you are getting an output to the monitor

IF THIS HELPS PLEASE VOTE.....GOOD LUCK AND THANKS..

The Acer 3000 series and 3610 series has different set of Parts, Hence Swapping the LCD screen may damage your other 3610 LCD also. Please try to get a replacement for Aspire 3000 LCD.


Thank you for using Fixya.

I didn't find any clear information on other model covers and if they fit, but I did find a cover listed at a decent price.

If found a link indicating the 3000, 3690 nd 3610 use the same LCD but that doesn't assure the cover is the same.

hi if you laptop has the s-video you can connect that to the tv an it would work

Try this:
Start -> Control Panel ->Display

Select the settings-tab

Check the "Extend my windows desktop onto this monitor"

Apply

I am assuming you connect to your LCD TV with VGA or DVI cable?

You may also have to press Fn+F5 (or some other combo) to enable the vga/DVI out on your computer. You may also have to change the resolution for the secondary display (the TV)
