Laptop Set Up

VGA ports by default are disabled on most laptops. To enable the port, the function and display buttons would need to be pressed simultaneously. The function button is usually found at the bottom of the keyboard near the “CTRL” and “Alt” buttons. The display button is found among the 12 function buttons at the top of the keyboard.

When using two displays on a computer or laptop there are two choices on how content is displayed: Mirrored or Extended.

Mirrored: Duplicates the desktop on both screens, all actions performed on the computer will mirror on the second display.

Extended: Be able to drag and drop certain windows and programs from one screen to the other, enabling one screen to have a program running while the other one is running something completely different. (Ex. Play a movie/slideshow on one screen and work on a spreadsheet or document on the other)

To set up multiple displays, you need to right click on the desktop and select the “Screen resolution” option (as seen below). A window will pop up, and if the VGA port was successfully enabled, there will be two displays labeled 1 and 2 (pictured below). From this menu you can choose to duplicate, extend, or even just use one display.

Note: If doing extended mode and you want the second display to be on the left click on the display in the menu and drag it to the left. The displays should read 2 then 1 on the screen (pictured below).
