utility allows you to quickly change the settings and 
resolution for your USB 2.0 SVGA Adapter. Access 
the menu by right clicking on the icon. 
 

USB-VGA (Primary) 

Make the 

USB 2.0 SVGA Adapter

 the main display adapter in the system. The system’s 

main display adapter (and monitor) will automatically switch to being the secondary display 
adapter and act as the extended desktop. 

Note:

 Some display utilities and drivers that ship 

with AGP and built-in display adapters will prevent this option from working on some 
systems. You can disable the other utility (usually 
found in the same toolbar located on the bottom right 
hand corner) to make this function work properly.

your Windows desktop. Use this to add additional 
space on your Windows desktop to keep 
applications in view while you work. Gaming and
