Trying to use laptop with broken hard drive as monitor

[Dagern]

I have a laptop that has a broken hard drive and I have a new laptop now. I was wondering if it was possible to use the one with the broken hard drive as a second monitor. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Yes and no.

You could boot from a flash drive ([url]www.pendrivelinux.com[/url]) and instal a vga to usb card (unless your laptop has a video input).
