Setting up multiple monitors
If your computer’s video card supports additional monitors (it must have two video ports), you
can connect an additional monitor or projector to your computer.
You can use the second monitor or projector as a duplicate of the primary display, or as an
extension to roughly double the size of your Windows desktop. Use the additional desktop space
to accommodate additional windows.
To use a projector or additional monitor:
1
Turn off your computer.
2
Plug the projector or monitor cable into the secondary monitor port on your computer. For
the location of the monitor port on your computer, see the setup poster or your
Reference
Guide
.
3
Plug the projector’s or monitor’s power cord into an AC power outlet, then turn it on.
4
Turn on your computer. Windows recognizes the new hardware and searches for its driver.
You may need to install the driver from the disc supplied by the manufacturer or download
the driver from the manufacturer’s Web site.
