    Hey all
    hope you can help me.
    My dad owns the dv6160ea, until yesterday he used the Function+F4 key to switch between displays (He has a projector) but now for some odd reason he is no longer able to, when he clicks the Fn+F4 the two monitors image pops up but the display doesn't change. I can change it manually trough the "view" control panel and the Function + F4 will change the display back to "Single mode" but not the other way around. It seems that the Fnc+f4 only changes the display to single mode from other modes and stuck there. I've tried a few Nvidia drivers including the latest ..tried system restore and HP QLB latest drivers + some old ones. I also noticed that no matter what version i install i can't change the buttons configuration under QLB in the control panel, all the buttons are grayed out, don't know if it has anything to do with my problem though.
    im wondering if any one ever had to deal with that sort of problem.

    thanks
