Bonjour, je viens par le canal du forum pour savoir s'il est possible de brancher ma tour que je viens d'avoir via HDMI sur mon PC tout-en-un qui pourrait me servir d'écran. Je précise que le tout-en-un en question est un Lenovo B540, merci.

Hello
Screen transfer from PC to video projector or TV (or PC screen)
Turn on the TV or projector; the video connection will be VGA or S-video, or composite (yellow RCA) or HDMI, depending on the setup. Except for HDMI, an audio connection must be added.
On older TVs, you can use a SCART adapter to connect to S-video, composite, and audio inputs.
There are several ways:
Start with this simple method for recent PCs running Windows 7 and 8: press the "Windows" key + "P" key and choose your option: "PC screen only," "Projector only," and duplicate, which is not relevant here.
Or another method:
* Right-click on the desktop on your PC
* Screen resolution
* Click on "Show desktop only on 1 or 2"
* Apply
* The image will then project onto the projection screen, and the computer screen will go black
* Click on the projection screen or TV by moving the mouse to "Keep changes"
* OK
Repeat the process in reverse to retrieve the image on the computer.
Or turn off the projector; the image will automatically return (after a few seconds) to the PC monitor
For audio, except with HDMI connection, you will use the sound card output from your PC to connect to the TV or an amplifier.
You need to align the display resolutions to the maximum of the least performant of the two screens
Or explained this way:
1. VGA and DVI ports
2. To open Control Panel, click on the Start button, then Control Panel.
3. In the search box, type projectors, then click on "Connect to a projector."
(To use a keyboard shortcut instead of Control Panel, press the Windows key + P).
4. Select how you want to display the desktop:
o PC only (this displays your desktop only on your computer screen);
o Duplicate (this displays your desktop on your computer screen and on a projector);
o Extend (this extends your desktop from your computer screen to a projector);
o Projector only (this displays your desktop only on a projector)
o For a TV screen, it's the same method
