    I'm unclear on your what you're trying to accomplish. Try setting the resolution on your laptop to the same as your desktop. You may be sending a video signal to the monitor that is too high for the monitor to handle. You should have 2 resolution settings, 1 for the laptops screen & 1 for the monitor your plugging in.

    Gibber, you may be unclear on what is trying to be said for the same reason I'm unclear. All I read was one big sentence and my eyes kinda wrapped around my head!

    Is this even in the correct area of the forum?
