Connecting an optional external diskette drive

5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.3

If the external video device, such as an SVGA monitor, is
capable of displaying at a maximum resolution of 640 x
480 and your system is set for a higher resolution, only
part of the desktop will appear on the screen. You can
view the “lost” area by scrolling to it.

If you use the display hot key (

Fn

+

F5

) to change the

display output with the LCD Display Stretch option
enabled and the Display area (resolution) set to 640 x 480
or 800 x 600, the image on the internal display panel may
appear stretched.

The Windows

®

XP operating system by default does not

display resolutions below 800 x 600. To display the 640 x 480
resolution, you may need to click the Settings tab in the
Display Properties window, click Advanced, click the
Adapter tab, click List all modes.
