I happen to come across many users don’t understand how to setup or configure second monitor or projector for presentation in windows operating system. They say, it worked fine in my place but somehow it does not work here. They even conclude that it Projector problem. Honestly, it is very simple and easy to do it.
1.check for the cable connection (make sure your monitor out put connected to input vga of projector, Few projector have 2 VGA being one for input and one for output – to connect to the next projector for looping so make sure you connect to input)
2.Make sure the projector’s input source is pointing to vga or pc (it differs for different make of the projector)
3.Make sure your notebook graphics adaptor property is set to have extend my windows desktop onto this monitor (see the above diagram) selected. We can extend or we can mirror it. This property menu appears upon "Right Click" on your display and select properties then this "Diaplay property" pop up will appear.
4.Select the appropriate resolution for the second display. If you are using old projector it may not support wide screen , so the safest resolution for second screen is 1024 * 768.
5.This will give you two screens to work, one is your notebook and the second monitor is your projected image. I strongly recommend using this way since you have your screen to do your activity and audience will look into the second screen.
6.Of course, if you are training and facing the students or the room layout of the presentation hall does not allow you to see the projected image, you can mirror your desktop in this case both notebook and projected images are the same.
Hope this helps.
Thank you
