Using the Video Features
The video subsystem of your computer features:
 14.1/15-inch TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) color LCD display with
SXGA+ (Super Extended Graphics Array Plus) resolution.
 Up to 1400×1050 resolution on an external monitor
 Simultaneous display on LCD and external monitor, which is useful
when you have a presentation as you can control the screen from your
computer and face the audience at the same time.
 S-video support allows the connection of a TV set, and simultaneous
display on TV and external monitor.
 Multi-display capability, which allows you to expand your desktop
on the screen to another display device so that you have more desktop
space to work on.
 Power Management.
NOTES:
 Before using the multi-display capability, the video driver supplied with your
computer must be installed.
 The computer enters Standby or Hibernation mode when the LCD is closed. If you
want to use the computer with the LCD closed, set Do Nothing to the “When I close
the lid of my portable computer” option in the Power Management Properties.
Thus the computer does not enter Standby or Hibernation mode when the LCD is
closed.
 When the LCD of the computer is closed, the LCD backlight will grow dim. Once
the LCD cover is opened, the LCD backlight will restore. This is a way of saving
system power.
