Hello all! I just ordered parts for my first ever pc build. I have a couple of last minute questions that hopefully can get answered. First, I was wondering if it's possible for my laptop to serve as my only monitor. I know I am able to make it a secondary monitor but I was unable to find out if I can set it up as my only monitor. I will not have a monitor for a few more weeks and want to build the computer as soon as possible. I was just going to run an HDMI cable to my laptop from the comp. If the laptop is unable to work I will have to use my 32" tv which I suppose could be worse. Secondly, my build is a black-themed build. I have a 240gb Sanddisk SSD. I was wondering if I am able to safely remove the sticker on the front and the best way to do so. I am aware of the possibility of losing the warranty if I remove the sticker. Thanks for the responses! <3
 
Solution
Lap Monitor: no. You can't make it a secondary monitor either, it only has video outputs, it can't receive any video signals.
TV: Will work fine.
Sticker: A hair dryer to heat up the the glue on the sticker may help, then you'll need elbow grease and some soapy water on a damp paper towel to get the glue residue.
