The computer’s image should appear on the projection screen. If it doesn’t,

projector with Windows 98 for the first time” on page 14 regarding the
driver setup process.
Make sure your laptop’s external video port is active.
Many laptops do not automatically turn on their external video port when a
projector is connected. Usually a key combination like FN + F8 or CRT/LCD
key turns the external display on and off. Locate a function key labeled
CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol. Press FN and the
labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your laptop’s documenta-
tion to learn your laptop’s key combination.
