    Multiple displays "Show only on 2" not working (at times)


    I'm using my Dell Inspiron 64 bit laptop as a base station mostly, except when I go out of town. That's when I lug it with me.

    Attached is a ViewSonic display, and a Microsoft "natural" keyboard.

    Yes, I'd like the large display to be my main (and only) one but on occasion the boot up stays with the laptop display. I then go to settings and do the "show only on 2" setting -- and things stay that way. Perhaps a half dozen boots -- then it reverts to where I have to the settings ritual.

    Enter on keypad " no. + # "

    petrib is correct. It is a shortcut to SIM numbers.

    Numbers on your SIM might not be in the position you think. Just because they appear sorted in alphabetical order in the contacts list doesn't mean that they appear in that same order on the SIM. On the SIM they appear in the order in which you input them,
    unless you delete a number in which case the next one entered takes its place.

    If it doesn't detect it, it will default back to the laptop display. My guess is every once in a while its not detected quick enough. Make sure its on before you boot up your laptop.

    My monitor is always ON as I never turn it off. Perhaps the detection timing window has a small time interval that my USB connection finds it difficult to satisfy.
