Additional AC adaptor
If you frequently transport the computer between different sites such as
your home and office, purchasing an AC adaptor for each location will
reduce the weight and bulk of your carrying load.
External monitor
An external analog monitor can be connected to the external monitor port
on the computer. The computer supports several video modes. Refer to
Appendix B, Display Controller and Modes. To connect a monitor, follow the
steps below.
1. Turn the computer off.
2. Connect the monitor to the external monitor port.
3. Turn the monitor's power on.
4. Turn the computer on.
When you turn on the power, the Windows
®
Bootup screen (Windows
®
Logo) appears on the display device.
However, the Windows
®
Desktop appears on a display device that you
used last time to shut down your PC, if the display device exists when you
turn on the power.
To change the display settings, press Fn+F5. If you disconnect the monitor
before you turn the computer off, be sure to press Fn+F5 to switch to the
internal display. Refer to Chapter 5, The Keyboard, for details on using hot
keys to change the display setting.
