Solve : Laptop not recognizing external monitor - SOLVED? |
|
Answer» I have a working LCD monitor and am trying to get my laptop to recognize it. I go through all te set up steps properly. F7 is the toggle and all I get is a blank screen on the external monitor (the power light is green). ...If I go to display devices via XP, I see the second monitor. If I click "extend..." then a mesage flickers on the display which reads "Analog 1 cannot display in this video mode"."Extend" option not AVAILABLE to laptop with external monitor.Quote from: Spoiler on September 28, 2009, 02:14:59 PM What is the make and model of the laptop and LCD? Lenovo X300 Laptop and a Dell standared issue 17" LCD (non widescreen). I confirmed that I have display adapters for both devices. I have updated the video driver. I have confirmed the resolution support is up to 1280X1024. I have tried LOWER registrations as well.
