Can I use a Dell laptop monitor on an Acer laptop?
I am wanting to make a "Wall mount PC" out of an Acer laptop that I have laying around but the monitor is busted. I have a Dell laptop laying around that has a fried motherboard (Typical of a Dell). I am wondering if the Dell screen will tie in with the Acer motherboard so that i can make a wall mount laptop.

Yes. As long as you have the cord you need to connect it.

If its VGA connect than yes. Really you can connect any type of monitor to any type of computer. I had a brand new Acer monitor connected to an old HP tower. Ot don't matter as long as it has a regular PC connection such as VGA etc.

Probably not. Different laptops have a number of different screens, even in the same manufacturing line. The usual problem with mixing them is the manner with which the mb connects to the screen. The only way to make sure is to take the screens out and see if there are the same. The same LCD manufacturer and the same part number. If they are then you are home free. I would hazard a guess though and say it's unlikely that a screen from a Dell will connect to a mb/base from a Acer. Good Luck though.
