Changing the Display Mode

screen of the primary monitor onto the add-on monitor.

mode, you will only be able to use “Mirror” mode. Also, your Aero™
Experience (Flip 3D effect) will be disabled while the adapter is
connected to your computer. Please refer to the Owner’s Manual on
the CD for more details.

• Right-click on the desktop of your computer and select
“Personalize > Display Settings” (Windows Vista) or “Properties
> Settings” (Windows XP and Windows 2000).

“DisplayLink Graphics Adapter.”
• Uncheck the box labeled “Extend the desktop onto this monitor”
(Windows Vista) or “Extend my Windows desktop onto this
monitor” (Windows XP or Windows 2000).
Using “Extended” mode:
• Right-click on the desktop of your computer and select
“Personalize > Display Settings” (Windows Vista) or “Properties >
Settings” (Windows XP and Windows 2000).
• In the “Display” drop-down menu, select the option that ends with
“Display Link Graphics Adapter.”
• Check the box labeled “Extend the desktop onto this monitor”
(Windows Vista) or “Extend my Windows desktop onto this
monitor” (Windows XP or Windows 2000).

match the physical arrangement of your primary and add-on
monitors.
