Attaching an External Monitor
5
Change the display output location by clicking on the
Both LCD and CRT Display (
) button or the CRT
Display Only (
) button (with Windows 98, at the
top
left of the screen; with Windows NT, a little to the right of
the top center of the screen).
Do not change the display output location when your
computer id doing any of the following:
– Playing or recording audio
– Playing a movie
– Playing a game
– Running any other multimedia application
Stop these applications before changing the display output
location.
If you are attaching an external monitor that supports only
VGA mode (640x480 resolution), do
not click on Both LCD
and CRT Display. Doing so would cause the external
monitor screen to be scrambled and the output not to be
displayed; in addition, the screen might become damaged.
Use CRT Display Only instead.
You can also change the display output location by pressing
Fn
+
F7.
