Operating Your Computer
Configuring the Display Modes
NOTE: When using an external CRT monitor, the resolution depends on the CRT
monitor’s supported resolution.
Your computer has been set to a default resolution and number of colors
before shipment. You can view and change display settings through your
operating system. See your operating system documentation or online
help for specific information.
For displaying in higher resolutions, you can connect an external monitor
that supports higher resolutions. (See “Connecting an External Monitor” in
Chapter 4 for more information.)
Using Landscape or Portrait View
After Windows is started up, you can rotate the display and perform the
touchscreen and active digitizer operations in the rotated mode.
To rotate the display, press the button
located on the front of your
computer to open the OSD control panel and click
. Each
time this Rotate button is clicked, the screen display rotates
counter-clockwise by 90
O
.
NOTE:
 If the screen display resolution has been set to 800×600 pixels, you can rotate
the display to Primary Landscape and Secondary Landscape only.
 While the display is rotated:
– Do not set the display resolution larger than the resolution of the LCD
display.
– If you exit Windows, the next time Windows is started up, the operation
of the touchpad will not match the display angle for a few seconds.
– The computer’s performance will decrease slightly.
– If a video is played, the picture may not be displayed properly or the
sound may be broken up. This problem can be corrected by rotating
the display to Primary Landscape.
– The touchpad’s scroll function does not work.
 The display cannot be rotated when DOS mode is set to “Full Screen.”
