Connecting An External Monitor - MSI MS-1057 Manual

Connecting an External Monitor

The notebook has a VGA port (19) for connecting an external
monitor.
1. Shut down your notebook.
2. Connect the video signal
cable of the external moni-
tor to the VGA port of the
notebook (19).
3. Connect the external moni-
tor to the electrical socket
and power it up.
4. Start your notebook.
There are two options for setting up an external monitor:
1. Clone your Desktop
Press <Fn> + <F2> to activate the external monitor. The
notebook display will be switched off. Adjust the display set-
tings following the external monitor specification.
Press <Fn> + <F2> once more and both displays are
switched on.
Press <Fn> + <F2> again to deactivate the external moni-
tor. The notebook display will be switched on.
Note
The external monitor should support the same screen
resolution as your notebook (1280x800), because it
is possible to carry out the Cloning Mode otherwise.
You will have to adjust the resolution of the notebook
to the external monitor under Display Settings, in
order to be able to carry out the Fn + F2 command, if
your external device does not support the respective
resolution.
