I have a Dell 5150 and cannot get my laptop SCREEN to appear on my tv monitor.  I can get the WALLPAPER to appear but not my INFO.  Please HELP!Have you GOT your display properties set to 'extend your desktop'? This would mean that you can sit your laptop side by side with your monitor and move the icons from one to the other as if it's one big screen.  If you just want a duplicate of the laptop screen you need to have this function un-ticked in display properties.Thanks.

We have done that.  We had the extend the desktop but I had to drag the window over to the second one for class to view, ex. a .ppt, and then I could not control it from my laptop keyboard.  I had to look at the screen to alter anything.

How do I get the screen to appear on the tv monitor and still be able to control it with my laptop keyboard.  (The icons did not appear on my desktop when I extended it so therefore I could not control it from the keyboard)http://www.mikesflightdeck.com/multiple_monitors_1.htm   and to push the boat out further this may come in handy>http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=w98  and you can keep your huricanes....we have enough wind in london....the houses of parlement
