We have just had to purchase a new laptop for Church - it is an HP nc6120 using Windows XP Pro, 504 MB of Ram 1.6 GHz Intel Centrino (pentium) processor. It has the Mobile Intel(R) 915GM/GMS, 910GML Express video display chipset.
We have a NEC VT 670 projector to use to project onto the screen.
When I check the settings for the screen, I do see the 2 screens showing for displays, but when I try to check the "extend screen to this monitor" setting, it does not stay checked after I apply.
When I select the alternate display from the keyboard on the laptop, it will switch to the projector, then to both, then back to laptop only, but when I try to go to the mode in Zionworx that would show the words for the congregation on the projector and the control page on the laptop, I just get a clone of the control page on the projector.
It seems as though I should be able to have the projector waiting for a signal coming from the coputer but showing nothing, so that when I do and f12 the image appears.
This is the same problem I've been having all along, I think, even with our old laptop. I'm beginning to think there's something I'm just not getting!! Please assist!
