Laptop+externel moniter
Reply
Posted 2005-12-18, 03:46 PM
My brother has an old Dell Inspiron(yes, I know it sucks big time) and the thing works pretty good for its age, except for the moniter on it which is really fucked up. Mostly a loose connection. It's really fuzzy, horrible colouring, way off center and when you change the resolution, it litterly makes the GUI take up more or less of the screen.(at 1024*768 there is a little bit on each side and top/bottom that is black and when you switch to the next size up it is too big for the moniter.

So I was wondering how to set an externel moniter as a primary one and not even use the one built in, this way we can close the laptop and set it out of the way and use a half decent 17" moniter as the main one.

It is running Win XP Home.
Kinda hard to explain, but...
Any help appreciated.
