External Monitor Win7 how to control/switch.

#1 Post by haraldnote » Tue Apr 06, 2010 4:49 pm

X41T with external monitor: WinXP controls external monitor with Fn/F7 just fine.
With Win7 same Fn/F7 does not work. How do I control/on/off under Win7?

Load the Hotkey utility and Presentation Director utility. Look for Win7 compatible versions.

Hi haraldnote!

This will save you a bit of time: There is no Windows 7 compatible version of Presentation Director - Windows 7 does those functions (e.g. Start>All Programs>Accessories>Windows Mobility Center).
