TPx61s - Device Manager list multiples?

#1 Post by b3l » Sat Apr 18, 2009 2:51 pm

If you have an X61s with the original install of XP (i.e. you have not reinstalled or used recovery), could you tell me what entries you have in device manager for video and monitors? I have 2 Intel® GM965, 3 default monitors and 2 vga monitors... I can't seem to get rid of the extra monitors... and the proper one isn't even being detected.

Edit: This is from a clean instal of xp pro.

If you also installed the IBM/Lenovo graphics drivers, you always get at least two video entries:
One for the internal LCD and
One for an external monitor that you can hook up through the VGA or DVI output.
That's pretty much standard fare on a TP.
