    I have a Compaq Presario with no monitor, keyboard or mouse. Is it possible to connect it to a Sony PCG-GRZ610 Laptop and use the Laptop as monitor and keyboard for the Compaq? Ta.

    No. You can connector another monitor, a keyboard or a mouse to your laptop and use them in addition to the laptop hardware. You can not connect a computer to your laptop and steal the monitor and keyboard. The monitor and keyboard are only functional when the notebook is turned on. Turn the notebook on and it's operating system loads, not the operating system on the Presario. Maybe you can borrow a keyboard and mouse to set up file sharing on the Presario. Then you would be able to get the files on the Presario through the notebook using file sharing.
