Considerations for attaching an external monitor

•When installing an operating system, you must install the display driver for your monitor that is supplied with the computer, and the monitor INF file that is supplied with the external monitor.

•If you set a resolution higher than the resolution you are using on the computer monitor, and use an external monitor that does not support that resolution, take advantage of the virtual screen function, which enables you to display only a part of the high-resolution screen image your computer produces. You can see other parts of the image by moving the screen with the TrackPoint pointing device or another pointing device.

•If the external monitor you are using is outdated, the resolution and the refresh rate might be limited.

Using the DVI monitor

If your computer has one of the following optional expansion units, you can use the DVI monitor through the DVI connector of that unit:

•ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3

•ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3 with USB 3.0

•ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3

•ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 with USB 3.0

Notes:

•The screen mode that can be used depends on the specifications of the DVI monitor.

•Before you attach the DVI monitor, make sure that the computer is attached to the expansion unit and the system works properly.

To attach the DVI monitor, do the following:

1.Turn off the computer.

2.Connect the DVI monitor to the DVI connector of the expansion unit, and then connect the monitor to an electrical outlet.

3.Turn on the DVI monitor and the computer. The system starts.

If the computer output does not appear on the DVI monitor, do the following:

•For a computer that supports NVIDIA Optimus Graphics:

1.Right-click on the desktop and select NVIDIA Control Panel. The NVIDIA Control Panel window opens.

2.In the Select a Task navigation pane at left under Display, click Set up multiple displays.

3.Right-click Verify your display configuration, and then right-click on the monitor icon and select either Clone Mode or Extended Mode.
