Connecting an External Monitor

If you want the benefits of a larger display screen with higher resolution, you can connect an external display monitor to your computer. Follow this procedure to connect an external monitor:

1.Turn off the computer.

2.Plug the monitor’s D-type signal connector to the computer’s VGA connector.

3.Plug one end of the monitor’s power cord into the power socket on the monitor and the other end to an electrical outlet.

4.To use the monitor, turn on the monitor before turning on the computer.

5.The connected device should respond by default. If not, you can switch

the display output by pressing the Fn+F5 hot keys. (You can also change the display through Windows Control Panel Æ Display Settings Properties.)

CAUTION: Do not disconnect the external monitor while the computer is in the Sleep mode or Hibernation mode. If no external monitor is connected when the computer resumes, the LCD might not display properly.
