You can switch to an external monitor or data projector by two methods. 1. Connect the external monitor to the laptop's video port, power up the external monitor first and the laptop. The video information will automatically switch to the external monitor. 2. If you power up the laptop first then you can switch the video output to the external monitor by pressing the Fn key and one of the Function keys, depending upon your make and model laptop. You can also toggle between the external monitor or both LCD screen plus the external monitor or back to LCD screen only by pressing the Fn key plus one of the function key a few times. Here is a list of key combinations for some of the laptops :- IBM ThinkPad = Fn + F7 HP and Compaq = Fn + F4 Toshiba = Fn + F5 ASUS and Dell = Fn + F8

SOURCE: My Acer Aspire 7720 cannot connect to the internet

go to network and sharing center. it should be where you click on the internet icon down at the bottom in taskbar right side. when it opens try setting up a new network. if that don't do it check to make sure your wi fi is on or needs resetting. also on that page in the network center is a pretty good troubleshooter. good luck

Wow this is tuff,
Setting from keyboard, possibly.
Software, not likely.
Video Card, possibly.
LCD Screen, very likey.
But with no screen you options at home are limited.

There is a setting on laptops that allow you to send the video output to an overhead projector and cuts the laptop screen off. However, when you re-boot it usually defaults to the screen.

I betting on a screen failure. You may want to take it to a PC Repair shop. Or, buy one here,

Hi jennylewry...


To fix an unresponsive touchpad on your laptop, reactivate it by using the Function key on the keyboard and the Fn key.

This process is different for each computer manufacturer.
If unsure which Function key enables and disables the touchpad, try each one at a time and then
attempt to use the touchpad after each one.

A...Locate the "Fn" key of the laptop keyboard.
The "Fn" key has different colored text or the key is a different color.
B...Locate the function (F1 through F12) key at the top of the keyboard that disables or enables the touchpad on the laptop.
The key typically has an icon that resembles a touchpad with a finger touching it or a touchpad with a diagonal line through it.
C...Press both the "Fn" and touchpad Function key at the same time to reactive the touchpad on your laptop.
Move your finger along the touchpad to verify that it works. Press the combination at any time to disable the touchpad again.
Note: Mac computers use "F2" to enable and disable the touchpad.
D. Sony Vaio Users: Start>Settings>Control Panel>Double click the Mouse icon.
Look at the top left hand side of the page, at the top and make sure that the "Tapping" box is unchecked, if it is checked then, you will uncheck it.
Please take time to rate me thumbs up

SOURCE: got an acer aspire 5735z laptop, its running but got a black screen

It only means that either the Inverter Cable/LCD cable or the LCD itself is defective, because if you still see the contents of the laptop to an external monitor, then it means that the rest of the computer's components are working.
You can have the Inverter Cable reseated or have the LCD screen replaced. Have it tested by a local technician.

When connecting the projector to a Dell Latitude 5520 Laptop(with Windows 7)with docking station the screen goes black on the computer and the projector does nothing. Is this a driver problem?

It may be that the drivers are outdated, ie compatible with Win XP but not Win 7.
What you could try, if not already done:
Start>Printers and Devices>
Right-click the projector icon, select troubleshoot.
Also select drivers, compatibility to see if any errors are reported.
The black screen may be your video card or CPU transferring all video data to the projector port to conserve RAM.
Failing all the above, I can only suggest you visit the projector website and look for the latest up-to-datest drivers for Windows 7.

I have a Panasonic PT-LM2U; when it is turned on, everything powers up fine but the image projected is upside down. I've looked through the menu but didn't see an option for flipping or rotating...

Every modern projector that I have seen has a setting that will allow you to flip the image for this.If you purchased it used it was probably configured as a ceiling mount in an upside down orientation or rear projection onto a translucent screen. (The projection method can be set from the "OPTION2" menu. in a Model LM1 so it should be similar. http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/PTLM1U.PDF

If yours doesn't have this option, then you'll have to use mounts that require the projector to be upside down.

I just bought a top-end MacBook Air 13.3" 4 GB/256 GB for presentations. I also have a Dell M410HD projector, also quite new (a few months old), which works great with the two PCs (one new, one old)...

They (Apple) might be right. It could be that the projector is damaged, like the bulb, or it could be incompatible with your computer, but I don't think that is the case. Try taking the projector to a computer repair place.

I can't get the display from my laptop to project to a screen.

If you connect the data projector to your laptop and power it up first then your laptop, the video will switch to the data projector automatically.
If you had powered up the laptop first then you can divert the video information to the external video port/data projector by holding the Fn key and then press F4 key.
You can toggle between the LCD screen, the data projector or both LCD and data project together using the Fn & F4 keys.
