How to have a Notebook as second monitor?

[ItsRodas]

Hello guys! So, i was wondering i have an old notebook that i don't use anymore, and i was asking if i could use it as a second monitor, the notebook only as a VGA adapter, and my computer has only DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI, and Display Port, but i have a DVI-I to VGA cable, so i was wondering if i could use the cable to conect the notebook to my pc as a second monitor.
Thanks!!!

The VGA port on the laptop is output only. You cannot use it as an input.

Hmmm, i see, so i cannot use it as a second monitor after all? or is it possible?

Well, there's this:
Air Display

and this:
MaxiVista

Neither are free, and I have no idea how well they work. It pumps the video over your LAN to the second device.

But no, there is no native way to turn a laptop video OUT port into a video IN port
