Table 8. Fn key combinations (continued)
Key combination | Description |
|
|
Fn+F7 | For Windows 7: |
| Switch between the computer display and an external monitor. Windows will show these |
| display options: |
| • Computer display only (LCD) |
| • Computer display and external monitor (same image) |
| • Computer display and external monitor (extended desktop function) |
| • External monitor only |
| Note: To switch between the computer display and an external monitor, the Win+P key |
| combination is also available. |
| For Windows Vista and Windows XP: |
| Switch between the computer display and an external monitor. If an external monitor is |
| attached, computer output is displayed in the following three patterns by turns: |
| • External monitor (CRT display) |
| • Computer display and external monitor (LCD + CRT display) |
| • Computer display (LCD) |
| Note: |
| This function is not supported if different desktop images are displayed on the computer |
| display and the external monitor (the Extend desktop function). |
| This function does not work while a DVD movie or a video clip is playing. |
| To enable this function, start Presentation Director, and change the settings. |
| Note: Multiple users can log on to a single operating system by using different user IDs. Each |
| user needs to do the following: Click Start ➙ All Programs ➙ ThinkVantage ➙ Presentation |
| Director, and change the Fn+F7 settings. |

| button for less than four seconds. |
| Note: |
| To use this combination of the keys, ThinkPad PM device driver must have been installed |
| on the computer. |
| Though the screen fades out immediately after Fn+F12 are pressed, the computer |
| does not enter the hibernation mode immediately. Do not move the system until the |
| sleep (standby) status indicator stops blinking. Moving the computer when it is entering |
| hibernation might cause corruption of the hard disk drive. |
|
|
Fn+PgUp | Turn the ThinkLight® on or off. |
| Note: This function is supported only on the ThinkPad Notebooks that have the ThinkLight. |
| The on or off status of the ThinkLight is shown on the screen for a few seconds when you |
| press Fn+PgUp. |
|
|
Fn+Home | The computer display becomes brighter. |
| The purpose of this method is to change the brightness level temporarily. On Windows Vista, |
| the default brightness level is loaded after sleep (standby), hibernation, reboot, or detaching or |
| attaching an ac adapter. To change the default brightness level, change the settings of the |
| Power Option in the Control Panel or use the Power Manager. |
