 Thread : blinking projector image from Toshiba laptop
 
Profile: stranger
More Information

Last night I tried connecting my Toshiba Satellite A215 to a projector for the first time. The results were no good. Both my monitor and the projector's image blinked constantly. Adjusting the refresh rate didn't help. Switching to just one monitor -- the projector's -- didn't help either. I gave up, unhooked the projector, and showed the audience my presentation on the little laptop screen. Now I'm reluctant to bring this laptop to other presentations. Any suggestions?

The same darn thing happened to me last night during my presentation with the same Toshiba A215 connected to a Sharp projector. It blinked all night long. When ever i hook up another laptop there is never a problem. Vista seems to be the cause but I am open to suggestions..Can I configure my Toshiba to prevent this happening? Kindly help..
