Connect Your Raspberry Pi by Laptop Display Using VNCServer

1) Raspberry pi(any model)

2) USB power supply

3) LAN wire

4) Computer

5) Micro SD card 8 GB or more (I recommend 16 GB class 10)

To setup pi go through my first instructable.

1) Change your computer IP address.

Navigate to Control Panel > Network and Sharing Centre > Change Adapter Settings. Open "Local Area Connection/Ethernet" > open(TCP/IPv4)'s properties. Select "Use the following IP address"

IP address: 192.168.137.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

click "ok"

2) Then navigate to Wi-Fi > Sharing and check the sharing box.

click "ok"

Using PuTTY enter the following command to install VNCServer.

$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get install tightvncserver

After installing you will be asked to enter and confirm a password. This will be asked only at first time setup.

Note that the password is required to connect to VNCServer.

Start VNCServer in Raspberry pi.

$ vncserver :1

here 1 is the port.

First download VNC viewer for windows.

When you run it will ask for IP address.

Enter the IP address of the pi with port number

"192.168.137.4:1" (without quotes)

click "connect"

then click "continue"

Now enter the password which you gave at the time of installation.

click "ok"

Now click terminal of raspberry pi and enter the following command

$ cd /home/pi

$ cd .config

Make a folder "autostart"

$ mkdir autostart

$ cd autostart

Create a file "tightvnc.desktop"

$ nano tightvnc.desktop

Edit the content of the file and save the file

[Desktop Entry]

Exec=vncserver :1

StartupNotify=false

Now save the file by pressing
