Q. I do not have a monitor yet for my desk pc.
A. Since a laptop display is typically integrated with the laptop then typically no, it's not possible to directly use your laptop display on a desktop machine...
However, that's not to say that it's impossible to use your laptop as a terminal to access your desktop, and there are actually plenty of ways to do that, though most of them require some initial setup.
My personal setup at home consists of three computers that don't have a display.. I have an AdderLink which actually replaces the keyboard, monitor, and mouse and allows remote network access from a VNC viewer (which essentially allows me to use my laptop as the keyboard, monitor, and mouse for the computers that the AdderLink is connected to). The drawback there is that the AdderLink cost me in the neighborhood of $400.. more than a typical monitor would cost.
You can install a free VNC server (not hardware but essentially a software version of the AdderLink) on your desktop machine and access it over the network in the same way (using a VNC viewer program). This installation, of course, probably requires the ability to see your desktop.
Most windows computers can act as a Remote Desktop server allowing you you to access the desktop using the Remote Desktop client on another computer - Very similar to VNC in terms of function but different underlying protocols, and again requires some initial setup (telling windows "hey, let me access you over the network!") that probably requires the ability to see what you're doing... unless you are really good using keyboard shortcuts and flying blind...
If your laptop has some sort of video input or you have something like a TV tuner adapter and you're lucky enough to have the appropriate connectors on both ends (say an HDMI out on the desktop and an HDMI in on your laptop) then you can use an appropriate application on your laptop to view what's coming in on the video input and display the desktop video output that way.

How to get high quality videos?
Q. I use my Samsung Intelligent lcd camera or webcam. But the videos always come out dark even if I turn the room light and a lamp in the background. I also try to speak loudly but you have to turn the volume almost all the way up to be able to heard. Any tips to get good quality? Thanx!
A. it's important to have a webcam with at least 1.3Mp image resolution, 30 frames per second (fps) motion control, a good quality glass lens, auto focus, and preferably a built-in microphone. USB webcams are particularly useful as there is no software to load. Simply plug them into a USB port and the computer will recognize it automatically. No more worries about software drivers. We previously wrote an article titled Which Webcam Should I Buy? which goes into detail on the many factors to consider in purchasing a quality webcam. The good news is quality webcams which meet our specifications can be found for as low as $25. Read the article for the list of recommended webcams and sources where you can purchase them at a great deal.
Lighting can dramatically affect the quality of your webcam video image, both in resolution and in color saturation. TV studios have strong lighting systems in place for a reason. Adjusting the location and brightness of your lighting can help if your video looks dim, grainy or washed out. The following common problems may be caused by lighting, and here are suggestions to improve the quality:
Dim Video â There isnât enough light in your room. Try turning on more lights, or move to an area where there is more light.
Dim Image â This could be caused by having a bright light source behind you. The camera adjusts its sensitivity to the background instead of you. Try positioning yourself so the light source is in front of you.
Grainy Video â While this could be caused by a low quality camera, it can also be caused (or made worse) by not having enough light. To compensate for the lack of light, cameras often adjust their sensitivity which creates more grain or ânoiseâ in the image. Try turning another light on, or sitting closer to and facing the light source.
Choppy video â This can be caused by not having enough light in your room, but can also be caused by not having enough bandwidth. Try turning on more lights and if you still have the problem, read the section below on Bandwidth.
Washed Out Image â This is usually caused by a light that is too intense (example: having a light shine directly at your face). Try dimming the light, or reflecting the light off a light colored surface, like a white piece of paper on your desk.
