Screen Expansion – Methods for expanding computer screens, including wired and wireless connections
The specific steps for wired connection are as follows:
- Connect external display devices: First, connect the computer to the external display device through a video cable (such as HDMI or VGA cable). Make sure to select the correct interface and choose the appropriate video cable based on the device type.
- Enter computer system settings: After connecting the device, enter computer system settings. This can be achieved by right clicking on a blank space on the computer desktop, selecting “Display Settings”, or using the Win+P shortcut key to open the “Projection” settings interface.
- Set up extended screen: In the system settings, find the “Multiple Display” or “Multiple Display Settings” option, and then select “Extend These Displays”. At this point, icons for the computer and external display devices will appear, which can be set to different display positions by dragging, or windows can be moved to different screens through tabs for display.
The wireless connection method is suitable for devices that support wireless transmission technologies such as Miracast. The specific steps are as follows:
- Enter Display Settings: Right click on a blank space on the computer system desktop and select “Display Settings”.
- Select wireless display: In the display settings interface, find the “Multi monitor Settings” column and click “Connect to Wireless Monitor” to search.
- Connect wireless display: Select the device you want to connect to from the searched wireless display devices, and click on it to connect.
Additionally, specific software such as Spacedesk can be used to achieve screen expansion. This software can expand screens or copy content between one host and multiple secondary machines in the same LAN state without the need for cables, and the transmission speed can basically meet daily needs.
Regardless of the method used, expanding the screen can improve work efficiency and provide a better visual experience. During the operation, if you encounter any problems, you can refer to the user manual of the relevant equipment or contact technical support for assistance.
