I have a Dell inspiron E1405/windows XP Pro.
A few month back I installed Samsung SynchMaster 205BW 20" monitor. The laptop works fine with the external monitor and without it.
The trouble is when connected to a projector instead of the external monitor, the display gets out of control. The fonts get very large (in powerpoint) in the area where I click the mouse. Also, the mouse wheel shrinks fonts in a browser to a tiny size. There is also a rapid ticking noise as if something is pressing on the keyboard very fast.
Any help will be appreciated.

I have the same problem with a Dell Latitude D810. The problem even continues after I reformatted the hdd. It happens only when I plug into a projector... 4 diferent models so far. External monitors work fine. I can't find an answer to this anywhere on the web.

It was due to Microsoft IntelliType Pro we removed this off our pcs and the problem went away.

Thanks,
