    t60p - external multimon with vista?

    The best feature of the t60p I use is the ability to drive 2 monitors when docked. I use the presentation director software to drive VGA and DVI connected monitors in a multi-mon configuration. The presentation director software is sort of clunky but it gets the job done most of the time.

    I'd like to upgrade to Vista, but not if I lose this functionality. Does anyone know if there is a way to get this to work with Vista? There is no vista presentation director on the support website...

    Thanks!

    There is a beta version of the Presentation Director for vista on the Lenovo site, but it didn't work for me and I had to uninstall it (something about a missing DLL)

    I've recently upgraded to Vista and I am still trying to get it configured properly so that it recognizes and enables the external monitor when docked.

    You might have to wait until Presentation Director comes out of beta if this functionality is important to you.
