Dear listers:

I want to make a presentation using a projector. I have FC5,
installed in a Dell Inspiron 6000.

I have tried configuring the double monitor facility, and
connecting a PC monitor to my laptop (both, while the computer is on,
and turning on the computer with the monitor attached to it), and I
have had no success.

I have also tried by configuring single monitor in my FC5
installation, and turning on the computer with the monitor attached to
it. Same results.

Finally I have naively tried to use the Fn+F8 key combination
(to redirect the output of the display in Windows). None of the
previously stated tries worked.

Does some one of you know how to do this?

Thanks in advance and best regards.

make sure that the monitor is connected and powered on before you turn the laptop on...at the least, the display should work when you operate the Fn+F8 key combination.
