I have tried everything. S-video. quality sucked. I got a vga cable and ordered a dvi adaptor but it ended up to be the wrong adaptor. Csn someone please explain how i can hook up my laptop to my in72? I really need some help here. Thanks in advance

Anyone know??? Anyone?

BUMP. Can someone please help me

the vga port is what you want to use. the cable will have to be a male on both ends.

There is no VGA port on the IN72. Sadly, Infocus uses a proprietary port to accept VGA or DVI inputs called a M1-A.

You need this adapter to connect a standard DVI cable to the IN72: http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10419&cs_id=1041905&p_id=2675&seq=1&format=2&style= Just plug this into the M1-A port and then plug you DVI cable into the adapter.

*OR*

Use this VGA to M1-A cable. http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10238&cs_id=1023804&p_id=3036&style=&seq=1&format=1#largeimage
This is even easier (but not a pure digital connection like DVI). Plug one end into you VGA out on your laptop/desktop and the other end right into the M1-A port. PLUS! The USB connector will let you upgrade the IN72's firmware too!

Your choice. I have the DVI adapter for the best possible picture (and my firmware is already up-to-date).
PM me if you need the exact video card settings needed to get a perfect 856x480 1:1 pixel mapped image.

Good luck.
