Ok here's what I'm running: Dell XPS m140 with Windows Vista. For whatever reason I can't set my external monitor as my primary monitor, seeing is how my laptop's LCD screen is broken. I tried the Fn + F8 hotkey and that is'nt doing anything like all the suggestions told me to. I don't know what to do and I'm getting VERY frustrated. Anyone know what to do?!
I don't know how well this idea works, but try remote desktop'ing into the laptop. start > run > mstsc
