Which key on your keyboard shows the monitor switching button? My Dell has a [CRT/LCD] written on the switching key, and it varies from laptop to laptop.

Make sure your monitor is securely and correctly plugged into the proper ports as well.

P.S. If you don't know which key you're supposed to press, take a picture of your keyboard and upload it somewhere. Then give us a link so we know what your keyboard looks like.
