Guest Paul Randall Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Re: disabled monitor on laptop Windows XP Laptops often have a 15-pin socket or something for attaching an external monitor. Perhaps you can see what you need with the second monitor in order to enable the primary monitor. -Paul Randall "soren kerk" <sorenkerk@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:eII69tF7HHA.1212@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > thx. > it's actually my friend's laptop.
