Issue

When you connect a Sympodium interactive pen display to your mobile PC (laptop or Tablet PC), your desktop extends across both displays or nothing appears on the Sympodium interactive pen display.

Solution

Change the graphics card settings on your mobile PC, so that your desktop appears on both your mobile PC and the Sympodium interactive whiteboard.

To change the graphics card settings on your mobile PC

  1. Right-click on your desktop. A menu appears.

  2. Select the command that opens the graphics configuration dialog box.

    Note  

    This command is specific to your graphics card. It may be labeled, for example, Graphics Properties.

    A graphics configuration dialog box appears.

  3. Select the option to display the same desktop on both your mobile PC and the Sympodium interactive whiteboard.

Note  

The graphics configuration dialog box is specific to your graphics card. See the instructions included with your graphics card for more information.

If nothing appears on your Sympodium interactive pen display after you follow the previous procedure, see document 98223.
