Problem playing video on external 21" LCD

I have a Toshiba 5105-S901 laptop with a Nvidia GeForce4 440 Go video card.

I am having problems playing windows media,winamp etc on the Samsung 213T 21" LCD display.
it is only playing on the 15" laptp screen while the 21" LCD remains blank.

Do I need a new driver. I checked the Toshiba site and the one I currently have is the most up to date
HELP

Thanks
Sydney

it is in dual view. when i attemptt to chage it to standard view under nview
it comes up with a dll error report and closes the window.

i dont have any games to test it out

I close the laptop after booting and use just the 21"

Laptops...

Most laptops have a key combo to move it from one screen to another...

Not sure about your laptop, I know IBM laptops are Function Key + F7...

Look up the key - combonation of your laptop for the proper ones...

After doing a quick internet search:

I just looked up Toshiba laptop and someone mentioned ctrl, alt, tab for key combonation to switch to external monitor...


Antec 600Plus Mini-Tower (600W)
AMD Athlon XP 3200+
WIN XP SP2
Asus A7N8X Deluxe v2.0
PNY Geforce 6800 Ultra
