CHAPTER 3: USING YOUR LAPTOP

Alienware Command Center

The Alienware Command Center gives you access to Alienware’s exclusive software and is a continuously upgradable control panel. As Alienware releases new programs, they download directly into the Command Center allowing you to build a library of system management, optimization, and customization tools. You can access Alienware Command Center by pressing <Fn><PAUSE> on the function keys. For more information, see “Function Keys” on page 36.

Connecting External Displays

If you want to enjoy your computing environment on a bigger scale visually, or extend your desktop area, you can connect an external display such as a standalone monitor, an LCD TV, or a projector.

Connecting a Display

Use the appropriate cable based on the connectors available on your computer and display. Refer to the following table to identify the connectors on your computer and display.

NOTE: When connecting to a single display, connect the display to ONLY ONE of the connectors on your computer.
