Dual Monitor Questions
Dell Inspiron N5110 with Windows 7 64bit and a non-HD external monitor.
What is the best settings for dual monitors? The external display is fine but the laptop's does not fill the screen. This would be ok until I need to use the laptop without the external monitor.
An issue which I believe is related is this. When I boot up, the pointer remains as a 'working in background' (pointer plus hourglass). It took a while to figure out but this is the strange part. If I change the screen resolution then back to the prior setting, I get the normal pointer back. If I need to go into the Intel graphics set up, knowing what to do or look for will help because the Intel utility id not low vision friendly.
Another question is, is it possible to use the external monitor when in safe mode? Thanks for any help I get on this.
