Connect external monitor to Dell laptop with a broken screen.?

  • My laptop fell and the screen cracked. I plugged in an external monitor but it wont dispay anything on the screen, meanwhile the laptop screen is still lit but you cannot see anything on the screen it is just bright white. I want to know how to i get the external monitor to work or do i have to change some settings that i cannot see to get to. btw this is the dell inspirion e1505

  • Answer:

    Whatever model the laptop maybe after connecting the external monitor u must press "fn"(function key) and F3. It should probably work. This is the same in almost all laptops. If its not working just press fn key and a key with a screen picture.
