You have a VGA port on your laptop and this has a DVI, but I'd assume that if you got a DVI-to-VGA adapter it would work just fine unless there's something special about 120/144hz monitors I'm not aware of.

From some quake thread:

That's a tough question. Getting 120Hz from VGA can prove to be difficult with 120Hz TFTs unless ran on lower than native resolution, so I wouldn't bet my money on doing that. You should probably do a google search about it, and maybe even send email to TFT manufacturers asking about it.

As for the HDMI and 120Hz, I don't think that's going to happen. You are most likely able to get 3d from movies and such but not real 120Hz support for 2d-modes.

You are in a really bad position here, your laptop should have either DisplayPort connector or then that DVI dual-link connector, and there would probably be no problems.

So if you're trying to run 144hz with a VGA-to-DVI adapter it might not work.
