Using Your Gateway Flat-Panel Monitor
20
You have the monitor connected to your notebook’s VGA port but see no image on the screen. 
If your notebook supports dual displays, you can use both your notebook’s display and this 
monitor in extended desktop multi-monitor mode. See Windows Help to learn how to enable 
multiple monitors.
You can also use this monitor as your primary monitor and not use the notebook’s screen. 
Notebook computers typically have an F
N
 key combination that lets you toggle between your 
notebook’s display and an externally attached display. On Gateway notebooks, this key 
combination is F
N
+F4. The F4 key is located along the top row of keys. See your notebook 
user guide for more information.

Color is not uniform
Touch (Menu), (Main Menu), then 
(Auto) to automatically adjust the display 
image to the ideal settings. (VGA input only.)

The monitor has pixels that are always dark or too bright
This condition is normal and inherent in the TFT technology used in active-matrix LCD 
screens. Gateway’s inspection standards keep these to a minimum. If you feel these pixels 
are unacceptably numerous or dense on your display, contact Gateway Customer Care to 
identify whether a repair or replacement is justified based on the number of pixels affected.
