event that you find that there are issues getting an image displayed on the
correct monitor, you should consider using the Fn + F5 hot key to change
the display settings (if you then disconnect the external monitor before you
turn the computer’s power off, be sure to press Fn + F5 hot key again to
switch to the internal display).
