Odds are your laptop has a standard VGA (blue smaller) input and the monitor is either a DVI ( white larger) or HDMI ( looks like a large wonky USB port). OR its the other way around and your laptop has the DVI/HDMI but I think I got it right due to the pictures I saw when i looked up the monitor.

You can buy a DVI to VGA adapter

or you can buy a cable ( best option)

If your laptop does not have the VGA input then you may possibly find another adapter that will fit onto the end of the monitor cable and interface with your laptop but you need to know what kind of input it is.

Thanks a ton. Question - is it strange that my "male" connector looks very much like the DVI connector - but instead of 24 pins (8 rows of 3 pins) it has two separate groupings of 9 pins (each grouping has 3 rows of 3 pins) - leaving a gap between those two groupings????
