you need to increase the refresh rate on the external monitor, you can switch to only
the external monitor, or make the internal or external display a “secondary” display:

You can set different resolutions and numbers of colors for each display. However, using
the Extended Desktop requires video memory to be shared. For this reason, higher
resolutions and higher numbers of colors may cause unexpected behavior on the displays.
Try starting with 1024 × 768 resolution on the external display and 64 K colors (16-bit)
on both displays. You can then try higher settings to see whether they work for your
applications. In addition, certain operations such as playing DVDs and running 3D
graphics require extra video memory, so you may have to use lower display settings.
