Go to the Intel Graphics tab and select the Graphics Properties icon. Click the devices tab ¿ here you can select monitor, notebook, dual display clone or extended desktop.<BR /><BR />Also make sure that the notebook is powered down and the AC adaptor removed before connecting the external monitor.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 18 Jul 2005 18:00:32 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/cannot-get-external-monitor-to-work-with-pcg-481m-tr1mp/m-p/144033#M107578 rich912 2005-07-18T18:00:32Z Re: Cannot get external monitor to work with PCG 481M / TR1MP https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/cannot-get-external-monitor-to-work-with-pcg-481m-tr1mp/m-p/144034#M107579 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Many thanks for that Rich - I think I'll need a trip out there to sort this one out!
