  • When I disconnect the monitor Samsung, laptop monitor loses the office.

    I use a laptop Toshiba Satellite L645-S4102.  I have been using an external Samsung monitor for a while.  I need to use the laptop for a presentation only.

    I can change to the screen of the laptop or use the Samsung monitor and the laptop monitor as long as my computer is connected to the Samsung monitor.

    But, when I disconnect the monitor Samsung, laptop monitor loses the shortcuts on the desktop and the taskbar and shows only the background.  I tried to restart the computer, but the same thing happens.  As soon as I reconnect the Samsung screen, everything happens very well again.  Ideas please.

    Start with the extra monitor connected and used.  Then go to your desktop and follow the instructions below:

    1. Click background, choose the resolution of the screen.
    2. In the graph at the top, click on your laptop screen (if you don't know who is who, click "Identify" and click the monitor displays on the screen of the laptop).
    3. Check the box "use as primary monitor" and then apply the change.

    The bar of tasks and other items still show on the main monitor, so this will ensure that your laptop screen is considered to be the main.

    If necessary (unlikely but it could happen), repeat these 3 steps again when the additional monitor is disconnected.

  • Possible to connect an external monitor for laptop HP Pavilion dv4t-4200 CTO

    I have a HP Pavilion dv4t-4200 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC model # A1M02AV and it has a VGA, one port that resembles a cable port phone/broadband and one that looks like a USB port, but indented on each side down. I can even connect an external monitor? How will I know if I have more than 1 video card? In addition to the usual USB/headphone ports, I have not all ports. He says that my drivers are up to date... but I don't know even what I'm looking for. Do I need to install something or buy some kind of adapter?

    I'm trying to connect an external Dell montitor via the VGA port with a VGA cable. The monitor has power, but my laptop does not detect recognize them / it. However, when I plugged in the first time in, my laptop screen has shrunk in a square (vs the entire screen) so he acknowledged something... but nothing happened on the external monitor.

    I tried to detect through my display settings, but I have accidentally changed some display setting until the reception desk shows only 1 monitor, but not selected my real laptop screen or something or changed to be Monitor 2 (even if there is no monitor 1), so when I plug the cable into my laptop suddenly my desktop disappears and it's just a white background screen - and I cannot access the screen of the computer settings or whatever whatever... when the cable is disconnected this setting seems to be normal, so I can not understand how to fix it.

    Sorry, I don't know what I'm doing here - please help!

    Hello

    All Dell monitors are equipped with CD for the drivers. Your laptop may not know the monitor without its driver, it will not install automatically. Please check:

    Ringht click an empty space on the desktop,

    Click Customize

    Click on display

    Click on change display settings

    You can see the TWO laptop screen and external monitor in there, as shown in the following image:

    For the test, I put my Dell monitor is my main screen. If I can't see 2 monitors, you need its driver first and then check the cable.

    Kind regards.

  • Impossible to get good resolution on external monitor for laptop

    I am struggling with this situation of resolution of external monitor for the past two weeks. Since the research I did, it is a very common question; However, I did find a solution. I tried all the solutions have not been successful. I hope someone here can help you.

    Asus K50IJ laptop

    Win 7 Home Premium 64 - Bit SP1

    Intel Core2Duo T6600

    4 GB OF RAM

    Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family

    Monitor is Samsung SC750_S24C750P connected with VGA cable (laptop doesn't have a HDMI output)

    I reinstalled the drivers for the graphics card; current driver is 8.15.10.2302 of 11/02/2011

    I reinstalled the drivers for the monitor; current driver is 1.0.0.0 11 13, 2012

    Monitor is currently appearing as "HDMI" in the Device Manager; I have chosen "Analogue" and had the same results. Now & then I see "Generic PnP monitor" in the Device Manager. whenever I see it I uninstall it.

    Bottom line is this: settings keep bouncing everywhere. On rare occasions, I saw the picture I want on the external monitor; When I close the lid on my computer (that's why I bought the external monitor - so I can get a bigger picture, not two), the resolution is 1024 x 768. When I disconnect the external monitor, I get the correct image and ratio 16:9 (1366 x 768) on my laptop screen. When I connect the external monitor I have two choices for the resolution: 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768.

    I went to the Intel graphics properties tool and set a resolution to 1920 x 1080 at 60 Hz - 32 bit - proposed by Samsung for their monitor. Result 7 choices of resolution, no '' recommended '' and the higher tag 1366 x 768. I can live with 1280 x 720; When I choose this resolution or anything higher, the laptop screen is superb, but the image on the external monitor covers 1/4 of the screen - the rest is black. Reset the external monitor doesn't change anything.  Computer restarting does not help. Monitor disconnect/reconnect does not help. I tried this routine dozens of times.

    I really need to use the external monitor, and I need the image proportional. Is there a way to do this?

    Hi, thanks for the response.

    I saw this on the Intel Web site so I tried mode extended without change.

    If I had 1366 x 768 on both screens, I would have been delighted - instead, I had two choices on my external monitor: 4:3, covering the entire screen with a distorted image, or 16:9 which covers about 40% of the screen.

    The most likely explanation I can think of is that the external monitor 4:3, I used in the past has left a kind of preference file in my computer which could not be changed, so he kept coming back to 4:3 instead of 16:9. I thought the problem might be the VGA - VGA cable, but this does not explain why I was unable to cover the entire screen on my external monitor with something other than a distorted picture.

    Using the past because I was forced to buy a new laptop. As soon as I plugged on the external monitor, everything was perfect.

    Thanks again for your help.

    Absolutely!

    You can use as many USB DVI adapters as you have USB ports available.

    If you go beyond the number of USB ports on your laptop be sure and use external powered hubs USB This way you don't kill the chip southbridge by gong beyond current capacity.

  • compatibility with the computer monitor mac laptop

    I use a Mac Pro laptop with an external monitor to the HP 2511 x. It seems to be an incompatibility with these devices. When Mac wakes up from sleep mode, the HP monitor will respond only to turn on maybe 20% of the time to recognize the computer. 80% of the time that he can't find the computer and going to sleep. The only solution I have at the moment is to unplug the power cord at the back of the monitor and reinsert of maybe reset the monitor, at which time it will recognize the computer and everything works fine until next time. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Hello @rotarypilot,

    I understand that you are having trouble with your CV 2511 x external monitor is always recognized by your MAC laptop. I'm you provide a document from HP support: updated a monitor driver, who says.

    "The HP monitors are not supported in a Mac environment. However, recent Macs use graphics with VESA modes and can display most of the HP LCD monitors. To do this, connect the monitor to the Mac, while the Mac is turned off and then turn on Mac. The monitor must operate at 60 Hz. The INF and software for the HP monitor are for Microsoft Windows and cannot be run in a standard MAC OS environment. »

    Basically, any support you will get with a HP monitor on a MAC computer should come from Mac.

    I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

    How to set up multiple monitors
    http://www.PCWorld.com/article/157672/how_to_set_up_multiple_monitors.html

    Of course, you need not to install a card in a laptop computer that it should support another monitor.

    ==================================

    You may need to update your display and video driver

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
    each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
    version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
    video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
    cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
    own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
    (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
    updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
    because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
    pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
    This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
    questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
    manually if you wish.

    Can I connect a 2nd monitor to my wife's cell phone (Laptop Inspiron 5000 17 Windows 10, bought Dec 2015) - without having to buy something more (video, graphics, maps etc.), except, of course, the 2nd monitor.

    I want both screens to be active (and not to replace the screen of the laptop.

    Just checking to see if I can do this natively, without having to make changes to his / my laptop.  10 Windows natively support both screens didn't he?

    And how to connect - HDMI, USB, etc...

    Ron in round rock

    If you want to add an external display, it is not a problem - HDMI is probably the best connector to use.

    If you want to add TWO external displays, which can be a problem if your system has Intel or video hybrid.

  • Monitor for laptop HP ENVY 17-j053ea driver

    Hello, I recently had my screen replaced because of a crack, but the driver that he was replaced at a base in the process, limiting my screen resolution at a fraction of what he is capable of.

    My laptop is a HP ENVY 17 - j053ea Notebook PC that runs windows 64 bits 8.1

    I was wondering if someone can direct me to a place where I can find the driver that came with the laptop.

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello:

    There is no such thing as a monitor driver for all HP laptops I have ever been.

    They all appear as P & P monitors.

    There are different screens with different resolutions.

    I have to imagine that your screen has been replaced by one of a lower resolution.

    For example: this desire 17j has the same resolution of 1600 x 900 your monitor has been replaced by.

    Hello E - Odc,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

    If you had the opportunity before you install Windows XP and that you are not given a choice now, perhaps you have installed the incorrect drivers. I am not able to determine what you have installed on the Acer site.
