Helpful Hints

  • My laptop is on, and plugged into the projector I hired, but I can't see anything on the screen/wall. What do I do?
    Well, assuming your projector is turned on, this is the most commonly asked question in the industry.

    All PC laptops have an 'Fn' button, usually located at the bottom left hand side of the keyboard. Along the top of the keyboard are the function keys, F1 to F12. Each of these buttons has an image on it, one of them, often it is F4, F5 or F8 (but it could be any of them depending on your laptop) has either the text "CRT/LCD" or two boxes intended to represent monitors.

    Holding down the 'Fn' button, press the button that fits the above description, and then release both buttons. Doing this will cycle through your laptop's video output settings. There can be up to four settings, so you may have to press that button combination up to three times to find the correct one.

    If you still have no image - call 0800 777 667.
