Ok thanks will try that now. Some very strange things goign on now tho, it is as if both monitors are splitting my laptop in half. Some things are coming up on one screen and some things on another. The mouse is only available on one so keeps switching over, very strange. I will try what you have recommended.

Thanks for the advice. After a little bit of mesing around I have eventually got the thing working! Althought I am still having problem displaying videos on it. I has tried to reinstall my adapter drivers but it says Ive got the best available so a bit stuck the moment

Rhys_O, what version of Windows do you have installed.

XP Pro? Vista Home Premium? Which version?

XP Pro

In the Device Manager, go to the Monitor in question.
Right click on the monitor. NOT the catagory, but the monitor.
Select the Driver tab.
Is the Roll Back Driver selectable.
If it is, roll back to the previous driver (if any).
Then, you can reinstall the current driver.

If you can not roll back to a previous driver, the select Uninstall.
That way, you will be able to reinstall the current drivers.

Once you have done that, go to the website of the manufacturer and see if that is a newer driver version for your device

Good Luck...

All drivers are updated. Video is working fine on laptop screen but is not transferring onto LCD monitor.
