    Hello, I have a Toshiba M45-S265. When I connect through USB
    to an Video projector, I get an image through the projector but the notebook screen goes off. In the past, the screen
    was on but the image did not go to the projector. What keys allow me
    to project the image while also seeing it on my screen.
    Thanks

    never have seen a beamer working with the usb port. but you´ll never know.

    did you try the second monitor option - vga/out ?

    edit : you should have options for the second monitor in your videocards control panel. you should go for the extended desktop or the clone desktop option.

    as for the keys, maybe fn+f7 could work. differs from manufacturer to manufacturer. but one of the fn+f keys should work.
