Hello
I am having problems running a second moniter on a laptop, there is a port at the back that connects to a moniter. I ve tryed going into control pannel to swicth moniters but i cant find anything.If it works with a moniter can i presume that it will work on a projector?
The laptop OS is Windows 98
Thanks in advance

If an external monitor works, so will a projector (Presuming it uses the same VGA connection).
Most laptops have a specific function key that will allow you to switch between the laptop screen, an external monitor or a projector, or even use both screens. In my experience it's normally the F8 key. You need to find this key either by looking or in the manual. You normally have to press the 'Fn' key and then the specific function key.

thanks for your help :). I ve tried the F8 but no luck. I dont have the manual either. Anybody know where to get the manual for a Panasonic CF-62, ive tried looking on there website but no-luck :(.
Thanks
