Product: HP ENVY 27-b170na
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Can I use the All-in-one HP ENVY 27-b170na as "screen only" so I can connect it to a different laptop and benefit from the huge screen?  Thanks in advance.

Hi,

 

I don't think the designers setup this way BUT your machine has both HDMI in and out. Please try HDMI in port (this port is for games console but may work for laptops).

 

Note: and you need to use  Display mode switch buttom to tell the AiO to use screen for other source.

 

Regards.

BH
