Feb 14, 2011 5:51 AM in response to onehooptymanby eww,You can toggle between Mirrored and Extended Desktop modes by pressing the F7 key. In Extended Desktop mode you will see a desktop background but no menu bar, dock, icons or windows on the external monitor until you drag icons or windows from your built-in display off the appropriate edge and onto the external display. In that mode you can also run the two displays at different resolutions, using the maximum capabilities of each and gaining maximum sharpness on both. In Mirrored mode, both displays will operate at the highest resolution that they have in common, which will usually be lower than the native resolution of the external display. Using any LCD display at anything other than its native (maximum) resolution will make the image on it blurry.
