    I connected breifly to an external monitor, it worked for a few seconds than it stopped. The connector is on the left side without the two thumbscrews. Where do I find the controls to use this option? Thanx. :confused:

    Try holding down the "Fn" key then F4. It should send the video to your external monitor.
    If that doesn't work try going to the display settings and changing your current display.
