Yep, done both of those. The annoying thing is that the mouse pointer will travel across to the other screen - it just won't take anything with it when I try to drag something across. Which defeats the whole point really. I can only think its the works remote access system its not recognising...

Went and nicked a monitor from work on Saturday, and got a nifty USB-C to HDMI adapter. Linked it all up, it all connected, my laptop screen was on the monitor as extra independent desktop space, lovely. Signed into the remote system to connect to the work server and systems. Went to drag an...

Yes, I managed to download a nice wireless mouse last year, but I can't seem to find a HDMI.

Its only just over a year old, so speed shouldn't be an issue. I'll have another squizz over the weekend, when I can be arsed. Cheers chap.

Not yet, no. I did wonder about plugging adapters into adapters - I'd need USB to USB C, then USB C to HDMI. What a ballache, I could end up shelling out a fair wedge on all that (and still not being ENTIRELY sure it'd work). I'm still mulling. Maybe I'll go in one day next week and make a raid...

:lolol: I wouldn't rule anything out at the moment. In these weird times, that actually sounds moderately appealing. Its acshully proving oddly tricky to source a standard USB to HDMI connector that I'm confident will do the trick, I'd have thought there were loads knocking about, but...

Cheers chap. I knew it'd be worth braving all the smart-arses to get a reply :D

At the risk of being a bit BG (god rest the dear old fellas soul), I wonder if anyone can answer me this. I'm WFH at the moment on a Chromebook laptop, which is do-able, but a bit of a chore not having 2 monitor screens like I do at work. I'd like to connect it to another monitor to achieve the...
