    Hi,

    I connected an external monitor to my T60 with vga-out and my monitor says No Signal.

    Trying to figure out how to get it to display.

    I've held down Fn and F7 together and I still get nothing.

    My other Fn combination keys are working. For example, Fn + F8 brings up a menu showing my settings for the Trackpad... so I don't think I need extra drivers.

    Anybody have any solutions?

    Have you checked the bios, as this has video output preferences. Also have you tried the windows properties for using an external monitor?
