I need to connect a projector to this laptop to show a presentation. After connect the projector to the laptop, I had rebooted the laptop, the projector's screen just blink only. Could somebody please highlight to me how to successfully connect a projector and what configurations needs to be done? Many thanks in advance. Unga
