Laptop as a second monitor on Windows 7. Really?

Question

Multimonitor

Tell me, is it possible to somehow connect a laptop as a second monitor?
I understand that a software solution is needed here, but all I found was ZoneScreen (which has an unsigned display driver) and MaxiVista which is very paid.
Maybe there is something else?

Answer 1

Now I do this: I
connect a monitor from a PC to a laptop , I
connect via RDP from a laptop to a PC, specifying the option “use all screens”
Profit!
The main plus is that such a scheme will work with any PC, and without installing additional. software.

Answer 2

synergy-foss.org/ is not exactly what you need, but it might even be better.

Answer 3

Maxivista www.thg.ru/display/maxivista/maxivista-01.html
Air Display getairdisplay.com (Win7+)
(both - not only for tablets)
www.zoneos.com/zonescreen.htm - for computers, free;
If output to tablets (question extension) Android or iPad, then ScreenSlider, iDisplay, Splashtop Xdisplay.

Answer 4

Perhaps it will be useful: if you deceive the video card that there is a 2nd monitor, you can use vnc to the desired monitor from the laptop.
You can cheat in different ways - starting from a resistor for a pair of contacts of the dsub connector and ending with connecting one monitor to 2 video ports.

Answer 5

There are iDisplay and AirDisplay programs. I used them myself to connect a laptop and a tablet

Answer 6

ZoneOS is like showing something. In the "monitor resolution" settings, you can impudently launch any empty port, and then select it as a source for ZoneOS

Answer 7

Encoding windows-1251 (aka cp1251). Somewhere on your computer it is marked as ANSI (if Windows is Russified). Junk, junk.
You don't have to worry about how the characters look. The main thing to remember is that the base encoding on the web is UTF-8. To transmit any text, it is encoded before sending and decoded upon receipt. Here are 2 magic methods:

encodeURIComponent()
decodeURIComponent()

Previously used another pair (worked with UTF-16 and deprecated):

escape()
unescape()

Use the first pair if you are sending the text yourself. If the browser does this, then it does the encoding/decoding on its own.
