will usually produce a comfortable image. Your monitor may refresh
at different frequencies depending on the resolution. Check your monitor
specifications for the refresh rate, this may help prevent eye strain.
If you do need to use another driver with your external monitor, you
might need to reset the driver for the LCD to achieve optimal display
quality on the LCD. Windows will usually provide you with a chance
to review the changes and cancel them. It will also usually instruct you
if you need to restart the system.
Unless your external monitor is a USB device, be sure to shut down
your system before connecting the device to your system to prevent
damage to your system and the external monitor.
Multiple Monitor Support
Your WinBook notebook supports Multiple Monitor functionality, which
allows you to expand the size of your desktop with the use of an external
monitor. You can easily drag or stretch items across the two monitors (your
LCD and the external monitor). This can allow you to have two programs
side by side, each occupying a “full screen” or can allow you to stretch out
a document or spreadsheet or image. Even though the monitors might be
side-by-side for you, you do not have to think in those terms: the Multiple
Monitor mode allows you to treat the monitors as if they were in any phys-
ical arrangement. You can set them to stretch vertically, allowing you to let
a long document run “down” onto the second screen.
One monitor serves as the primary display (you can set which it is by fol-
lowing the directions below). Most programs and dialog boxes will open
in the primary display, but you can drag them to the secondary monitor.
To enable the Multiple Monitor function, you will need to connect an
external monitor to the SVGA port on the back of your WinBook notebook.
It is recommended that you reboot after connecting the monitor as this
allows the WinBook notebook to properly recognize the presence of the
external monitor.
