Unless you have a special laptop that allows an input plug, that is an output vga you have.

Check your manufacturer's manual, but 100% of those I saw are output vga...

I have not seen laptop with VIVO in standard yet. You can buy TV tuner on USB/ExpressCard/PCMCIA and watch signal from video in port on tuner's program. Bad quality for sure.

You just plain CANT use a laptop (or PC) video input for gaming- Almost ALL input equipment had input lag (usually compression, then file replay for video output) which makes gameplay nearly impossible, except for turn-based games.
