How would I do this?

[amr120402]

I am new to this website and have a question regarding media center and a 2nd monitor. If i have a laptop with media center and am connecting an LCD monitor to direct tv would i connect my laptop to the direct tv box or to the LCD monitor in order to use media center on the LCD? Im pretty sure this is possible somehow i just dont know how to do it. Thanks for the help

also i would be connecting to the direct tv box via DVI ....i havent gotten the lcd yet but im just making sure i can do this before i get it.
