Extended Desktop - Panasonic CF-73 Series Reference Manual

External Display

Extended Desktop

Simultaneous display cannot be used until Windows startup is complete (during Setup
Utility, etc.). When the Fn+F3 key is pressed, the screen is displayed on the external
display or internal LCD.
Simultaneous display and display destination switching cannot be used while
[Command Prompt] is set to "Full Screen"
When the external display is used alone, set the number of colors, resolution, or
refresh rate to suit the external display. These settings differ when the internal LCD is
used alone or with an external display simultaneously. However, in the case of some
external displays, the screen display may be distorted or the mouse cursor may not be
properly displayed depending on the settings. In this case, try setting the number of
colors, screen area (resolution), and refresh rate to smaller values.
When the computer is set to display on both the internal LCD and the external display,
DVD-Video, MPEG files and other video files may not be played back smoothly.

Either select the correct external display driver using in the following menu. Or use
the driver disk that was supplied with your monitor.
