Dual Display on Acer Aspire 3003WLCi
I've got the dual display working, but have one small problem, when in
dual mode (external montitor connected) the LCD can no longer support the resolution and the screen goes virtual (not sure what the right term is). The same setting work fine (no virtual area) when there is no external monitor connected. Here is the current configurations on the SIS M760GX: A)Stand alone (no external monitor connected) LCD - 1280x800 - 32bit - 60Hz B)Dual mode LCD - 1280x800 - 32bit - 60Hz Monitor - 1280x1024 - 32bit - 60Hz In mode "A", everything fits on the laptop screen. I can see all of the screen on the LCD. In Mode "B", the LCD can not contain the resolution it is set to (not sure if it's a windows thing or a hardware thing). The entire display scrolls when the mouse goes near an edge. It still appers to be set properly resolution wise, because the area I can use, the vertical (800), is not as big as on the monitor (1024). Can't roll the mouse from the monitor to the LCD from the very bottom area of the monitor. Anyone know if this is by design or I'm just doing something wrong? Would like everything to always fit on the LCD screen, like it does when no external monitor connected.. Acer support said that both displays need to be set to the same resolution, but that is obviously not the case either, and doing that (lowering box), still had same behaviour. I've tried the above with the Acer Adapter drivers, and the latest ones I just downloaded from SiS. Thanks for any insight, Tony |
