Two monitors

So I decided to add a monitor with my laptop to see how it might look.

I push expand these displayed on display setting. And when I do, my laptop screen is upside down and the other monitor isn't.

You guys know how to fix this?

Re: Two monitors

When you do expand does it have the same thing on both monitors or different for both?

Re: Two monitors

lmao why would you want to extend it? Unless the external monitor is the same size and screen res..
It would probably be better if you just duplicated or set it to projector only.

Nope, the screen expands. But the screen on my laptop is flipped upside down.

@Ray - I just want to test it -_-

Re: Two monitors

I will let you know when I get home Ray.

the reason I want to see so I can have a little bigger and better screen so I might watch movies and play Halo on a bigger screen.

Re: Two monitors

Yes, so setting it to "projector only" is the way to go
