1. May be stupid but what is the hotkey to switch display outputs? I know I can change it in the screen resolution section but is there a FN+____ button I can press to quickly switch between two displays?
2. I'm new with all this so what are the optimal settings if I want to overclock this (getting BF3 so I want more performance but safely)? Not sure what determines that so my specs are i7 2630QM, 6GB DDR3 at 1600MHz and GT555M 1.5GB.
3. I have my laptop hooked up to my LCD TV via HDMI. My TV is then hooked up to a surround sound system. I would have thought this would enable surround sound gaming on my laptop but it doesn't seem to work. I went into the sound options on my laptop and it even says 2 channel max with no option to change it. I did a quick google search and most people are saying there should be an option for 5.1 surround sound but I dont have one. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

FN+F1 is your hotkey for display outputs, 750mhz core clock, 1500mhz shader, and 1080mhz memory clock are the settings you probably want to use for overclocking the gpu, try going to the control panel, hardware and sounds, sound, then click on the realtek high definition audio, then click configure. hope that helps

FN+F1 still just brings up the popup window. I was looking for an automatic way to switch between the displays (my old laptop had one and it was really convenient for me which is why I ask). But thanks =)

as far as i know ther isn't a quicker way to switch. I play on an acer 23" and i too think it would be nice if there was a quicker way.
Just got my M14X and I have some questions
