Infocus X-2 projector not connecting to video output

Hey there,

I have an old Infocus projector (sn: AMMC44503479) which used to work on an old xp machine.  I'd like to not buy a new one unless I have to.  I've tried numerous xp and win 7 machines but they don't work.  Can you tell me which machines \ drivers I need?  I'm assuming I can't use win 7?  Any help would be great.

thx,

Metalfubar

If you are using the VGA input on the projector, any of your PCs should work without a driver. Have you hooked up any devices using a different input, such as RCA video (yellow) to a DVD player or VCR?
Have you tried a new VGA cable?
Can you explain what is happening, no picture, error messages, etc.?

yes vga is what I'm attempting.  cable works so rca works but I don't have any longer.  

I don't have any components other than laptops using wifi.
I have access to MacBook pro running yosemite , windows 7 (Lenovo t440p), windows xp (dell E5520), windows 8 (t440p) laptops.  One of these should work?  it did work with a super old xp laptop a long time ago which was a dell d550 I think.  thanks again!
what is the projector doing? No light, an error message, etc?
no it's just not being found when scanning once fn f8 is hit.  It doesn't matter where you change the source to.
hey do I need an M1 to vga/usb cable for it to work with a laptop?
