Adjusting the quality of the external display
To obtain the best picture quality from your external display
device, you may need to adjust the video settings. See the
documentation supplied with the device for additional
configuration steps.
TECHNICAL NOTE: In order to use the simultaneous mode,
you must set the resolution of the internal display panel to
match the resolution of the external display device. The
external display device must support a resolution of 640 X 480
or higher.
Display limitations
Keep in mind that the quality of the display will be limited to
the capabilities of the external video device.
❖If the external video device, such as an SVGA monitor, is
capable of displaying at a maximum resolution of 640 x
480 and your system is set for a higher resolution, only
part of the desktop will appear on the screen. You can
view the “lost” area by scrolling to it.
❖If you use the display hot key (Fn + F5) to change the
display output with the LCD Display Stretch option
enabled and the Display area (resolution) set to 640 x 480
or 800 x 600, the image on the internal display panel may
appear stretched.
The Windows® XP operating system by default does not
display resolutions below 800 x 600. To display the 640 x 480
resolution, you may need to click the Settings tab in the
Display Properties window, click Advanced, click the
Adapter tab, click List all modes.
