Video limitations
Keep in mind that the quality of the display will be limited to the
capabilities of the external video device.
❖
If the external video device, such as an SVGA monitor, is
capable of displaying at a maximum resolution of 640 x 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.
❖
Since most televisions and video projectors overscan by 15 to
20 percent, some of the desktop will be outside the viewing
area. You can view the edge of the desktop by scrolling to it.
❖
If you use the display hot key (
output with the LCD Display Stretch option enabled and the
display area (resolution) set to 640 x 480 or 800 x 600, the
image on the internal display panel may appear stretched.
Using an external keyboard
If you prefer to use a full-size keyboard, you can attach one to your
computer. The computer's PS/2 mouse/keyboard port supports
any PS/2-compatible keyboard.
Connecting Other External Devices
Make sure the computer is off before you attach the
external keyboard. Connecting an external keyboard with
the computer's power on can damage the external
keyboard, the computer, or both.
If you connect a PS/2 keyboard to the computer while it
is in Standby mode, you will not be able to use the
keyboard when you turn the computer on.
