Failing that try reading the Owners Manual for a solution if you have lost yours you can get a copy from here

Yes please go to maker?s web site and down load the manual, it may help with the laptop screen. But have you tried the FN and CRT/F8 buttons? With the computer on press the FN key and the F8 key once, this moves the display to the external monitor. Press it again and it moves it back to the laptop, and once more to move it to both.
You can right click an open area of the desk to get to the display properties. This will let you set screen size, back grounds and allot of other stuff.
I would also check the FAQ's on the maker?s site about known problems
