Hi,


You do not say which exact model it is.

See the specifications and the manual for available video/monitor ports.


If the computer has a VGA port (many have), this may be the easiest way. If necessary, an adapter can be used. More or less any VGA monitor should work (even some television sets have a VGA connector).
