configuration steps.

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.

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.
