  • Your laptop may support this feature. Try the following.
    If you're using a PC notebook:
    • Press the function key that lets you display on an external monitor. It's often labeled with an icon such as , but it may also be labeled CRT/LCD. You may have to hold down the Fn key while pressing it. Allow a few seconds for the projector to sync up after pressing it. Check your laptop's manual or online help.

    • Depending on your computer's video card, you might need to use the Display utility in the Control Panel to make sure that both the LCD screen and external monitor port are enabled. See your computer's documentation or online help for details.
    If you're using Macintosh OS X:
    1. Select System Preferences from the Apple menu and click Display or Displays.
    2. Click Detect Displays.
