Extended Desktop - How do i disable it on Laptop?


Recommended Posts

Hi, 2 of my friends have bought identical laptops HP Omnibook 6100. I've put XP Pro on them and for some reason they both are set on extended desktop - even though theres no monitor attached. I cant disable it in the display properties as its greyed out but its ticked. So at the moment you have to scroll around the screen to get from the top to the bottom of the desktop and also left to right - this even happens on the logon screen!

Weird. Well, does it come with some type of 3rd-party video card control panel applet or something? For example, on my laptop, you right-click on the desktop and choose "Graphics Properties" to get the Intel GMA Driver Control Panel, and you can configure stuff like that. It's better than using the windows built-in monitor stuff anyways. Alternatively, connect an external device and then disable it. Then remove the device.
