the capabilities of the external video device.

capable of displaying at a maximum resolution of 640 x
480 and your system is set for a higher resolution, only
part of the desktop will appear on the screen. You can
scroll to view the "lost" area.
Since most video projectors overscan by 15 to 20 percent,
some of the desktop will be outside the viewing area. You
can scroll to view the edge of the desktop.
If you use the display hot key (
display output with the LCD Display Stretch option
enabled and the display area (resolution) set to 640 x 480
or 800 x 600, the image on the internal display panel may
appear stretched.
