Hi all,
I have a studio xps 13" with the nvidia 9500. I am running vista Home premium.
recently I tried to output a Powerpoint presentation through to a projector via a (folsom) graphics switcher.
What i wanted was to clone the desktop image to the projector.
No matter what i tried I could only get the following scenarios:
full desktop on laptop
Full desktop on projector
Or extended desktop on both!
I am at a total loss as to how to get a dual cloned output
i did do the quick start up fix
This tweak is responsible cutting system start time 3-5 seconds and eliminating that blank screen flash when you start Vista. This normally occcurs when Vista searches for external monitors on startup of Vista. If you are not using an external monitor, or dont switch back and forth always...turn TMM off.
Here's how to fix that annoying black flicker on boot:
1. Go start/control panel/administrative options/task scheduler.
2. On the left-hand side, click "Task Scheduler Local" (you should already be there, but just in case).
Expand "Task Scheduler Library," then "Microsoft," then "Windows," then click "MobilePC."
Up top, you'll see a task called "TMM." Click it, and on the right-hand side, click "Disable."
If you use an external monitor occasionally as I do, just press and hold FN and press F8 twice to switch monitors.
I then re enabled that setting. When it restarted it booted up in clone mode and then jumped out into one of the 3 above modes.
Anyone any ideas as to what i am doing wrong/ what i need to do to get it working ok
Thanks all
