If the projector excepts RGB video input, then it will work.

If so, you can probably use that, especially if the projector has an S-video input. Also, depending on your laptop, there may be more then one video "card" - so you can have the built-in display showing one thing, and the external video showing another. Or they can both show the same thing, but at different video resolution. If your laptop has this, you can use the GUI setup tool to set each screen the way you want. There are USB video "cards" - I do not know how well they are supported, as I have never needed one. I hope this helps...
