Viewing the display on a projector
or monitor
You can use your notebook for giving presentations by connecting an external
monitor or projector to your monitor (VGA) port. Your notebook supports
simultaneous LCD and CRT display. Simultaneous display allows you to control
the presentation from your notebook and at the same time face your audience.
To use a projector or external monitor:
1 Turn off your notebook.
2 Plug the projector or monitor cable into the VGA port on your notebook.
For the location of the VGA port, see “Back” on page 5.
3 Turn on your notebook.
4 Plug the projector’s or monitor’s power cord into an AC power source and
turn it on. Windows XP recognizes the new hardware and searches for its
driver. You may need to install the driver from the disc supplied by the
projector’s or monitor’s manufacturer or download the driver from the
manufacturer’s Web site.
5 After the driver is installed, right-click any empty space on the desktop,
then click
Properties. The Display Properties dialog box opens.
