Look for the screen symbol on one of the function keys and try pressing that once and wait several seconds to see the screen changing video. Then press again if not correct.

If nothing is appearing on the projector, then connect a lcd monitor on the laptop and try the function keys intil it works thyen swap the monitor for the projector, and start the input scan for the active video input.

You can select the Design you want by click-in on "Design" tab. Pick your themes and click on the template to begin typing the information.

You can insert charts, pictures, video, and tables. To do so, click on the "Insert" tab to add or adjust. Once completed with your powerpoint you can view it. Click on the slide show tab and select "From Beginning" to view your powerpoint in presentation view mode. You can hit "ESC" at anytime to get out of this view mode.

Dear Anand,

To broadcast your presentation, do the following:

1. On the Slide Show tab, in the Start Slide Show group, click Broadcast Slide Show.

The Broadcast Slide Show dialog box opens.

1. Do one of the following:
• If you want to host your slide show on the service listed under Broadcast Service, skip to the next step.
• If you want to use some other service to host your slide show, click Change Broadcast Service. Under Choose a broadcast service, select the service that you want to use. For more information about broadcast services, see Choosing a broadcast service.

Note If you do not see the service that you want to use, select Add a new service, and then in the Add Broadcast Service dialog box, enter the network address of the service you want to use and then click Add.

1. After you select your broadcast service, click Start Broadcast. PowerPoint then creates a URL for your presentation.

PowerPoint creates a unique URL for your slide show.

1. To send the URL for your presentation to your audience, do one of the following:
• To send the URL for your presentation by email, click Send in Email.
• To copy the link, click Copy Link.
2. When your audience receives the URL for the slide show, click Start Slide Show to begin your broadcast.

The audience follows your slide show in their browser while you present within PowerPoint 2010.

1. After you finish presenting and are ready to end the broadcast, press ESC to exit Slide Show view and then click End Broadcast.

After you begin broadcasting a slide show, the Broadcast tab appears in the PowerPoint 2010 ribbon.

Here's what the User's Manual says:

Using the Remote Control

To advance PowerPoint slides with the projector's remote, you

must connect the USB cable on the projector's computer cable to

the computer. See page 8 for more information.

Point the remote control at the projection screen or at the front or

rear of the projector (not at the computer). The range for optimum

operation is about 30 feet. If you point the remote at the

projection screen, the distance to the screen and back to the projector

must be less than or equal to 30 feet. For best results, point

the remote directly at the projector.

If you are displaying presentations in Microsoft® PowerPoint®,

you can use the remote's Previous and Next buttons to navigate

through your presentation while in Slide Show mode.

Hitachi data projectors are able to function as a mouse using either the USB port or the control port located on the back of the projector.

However, they are not intended to be used as a remote presenter. This means that although you can use the remote as a mouse, you will not be able to change slides in a full screen slide show using powerpoint.

I recommend the Targus remote presenter for this purpose. This device will function as a mouse, pointing device, and will allow you to change slides in powerpoint. In addition, it's inexpensive, wireless, and small enough to easily fit in your pocket.

sounds like its an un-supported feature sorry :(

Hello, Chris.

I'm not certain if this was already tried, but here goes:

If you look at you keyboard function (F) keys, you'll see a symbol or the words "CRT/LCD". On my laptop, it is F8, but could be different on yours.

When you connect an external screen to your laptop, if the laptop information doesn't show on the external screen, press your Fn key plus that function key with the symbol or words.

Normally, when you press once, twice and three times, you toggle through various options: your laptop screen only, your external screen only and both screens.

Hope this helps.

You need to push the function key FN and hold it down then press F5

Honestly from the information you have listed it sounds like the issue is with your projector, not your laptop. If your laptop was having display issues it would be consistent on anything it was attempting to output display to, such as your monitor.

The projector sounds like its out of focus and possibly has a bad back light in it, I would suggest contacting the manufacture for a possible resolution.
