Windows XP used... TV being used as an external monitor receives a signal from the laptop, but displays no office or something more

My Samsung DLP is connected to my laptop and it shows the logo of the computer but I can't get anything else, such as the desktop... any help would be appreciated

Hi jayvee53,

1. don't you make changes before the show?

We recommend that you adjust the size of the screen in digital and analog Mode in Windows (resolution setting)
If the image is too large or too small, very probably, you must set your computer to optimal resolution screen and/or the optimal frequency (vertical frequency) to your TV.

Step 1: To set the optimal resolution, follow these steps:
a. Click Start > settings > Control Panel.
(b) in the Control Panel window, double-click display. Display of the dialog box is displayed.
c. click on the settings tab in the display dialog box. The settings dialog box is displayed.
d. in the screen resolution section, move the cursor to the optimal resolution for your TV and then click OK.
e. in most of the cases, the screen goes out for a moment or two and then re - appears in the new resolution, display a dialog box asking if you want to keep the new setting.
f. click Yes.

Important: The Optimum resolution for your LCD TV should be included in the section display PC of your manual.

Step 2: To set the optimal refresh rate, follow these steps:
a. Click Start > settings > Control Panel.
(b) in the Control Panel window, double-click display. Display of the dialog box is displayed.
c. click on the settings tab in the display dialog box. The settings dialog box is displayed.
d. click the Advanced Options button at the bottom right of the dialog box.
e. in the dialog box that appears, click the monitor tab.
f. on the tab monitor in the monitor settings box, click screen refresh fall down, then 60 Hertz.
g. click OK.

Note: We recommend that you also download and install the latest video card driver on your computer.
