    I need help as this is driving me crazy.

    When I connect my external monitor to the VGA port it recognises it and then sends the laptop in to a spin as it continually changes resolutions, swithced external monitor on and off, this can go on for over 5 mins at a time.

    Have tried Fn + F7, but this has not helped, have tried adjusting setting etc in control panel and with Nvidia control panel, will work for a short period then off it goes again.

    Has anyone else had this problem and how did you fix it.

    Thanks
    Tom
