Video
Your computer has the following external video ports:
VGA
DisplayPort
NOTE: Refer to Getting to know your computer on page 4 for information about your computer's
video ports.
VGA
The external monitor port, or VGA port, is an analog display interface that connects an external VGA
display device such as an external VGA monitor or a VGA projector to the computer.
1. To connect a VGA display device, connect the device cable to the external monitor port.
2. Press f4 to alternate the screen image between 4 display states:
PC screen only: View the screen image on the computer only.
Duplicate: View the screen image simultaneously on both the computer and external
device.
Extend: View the screen image extended across both the computer and external device.
Second screen only: View the screen image on the external device only.
Each time you press f4, the display state changes.
NOTE: Adjust the screen resolution of the external device, especially if you choose the “Extend”
option. From the Start screen, type control, and then select Control Panel from the list of apps.
Select Appearance and Personalization, and then select Adjust screen resolution under Display
for best results.
DisplayPort
The DisplayPort connects the computer to an optional video or audio device, such as a high-definition
television, or to any compatible digital or audio component. The DisplayPort delivers higher
performance than the VGA external monitor port and improves digital connectivity.
