I have an HP Pavillion with a broken LCD screen, I can only see 1/2 of the display. I need to disable it and use an external monitor. I can only get my control panel display function to extend the display. It will not let me select my external monitor as my main display.

the FN key + the F4 key will let you use an external display. Don't set it up in Windows.

All NB's have the option to use a Key Combination to select the Primary Display. This is listed in the Instruction Manual that comes with the unit originally.

As you didn't give a Model Number I can not help you any more than that though. ;)
