If the video resolution setting is higher than that supported by the display, the computer enters pan mode. In pan mode, the screen cannot be completely
displayed. For example, the taskbar that usually appears at the bottom of the desktop may no longer be visible. To view the rest of the screen, use the touch
pad or track stick to pan up, down, left, and right.
Dual Independent Display Mode
You can attach an external monitor or projector to your computer and use it as an extension of your display (known as "dual independent display" or
"extended desktop" mode). This mode allows you to use both screens independently and drag objects from one screen to the other, effectively doubling the
amount of viewable work space.

NOTE: Use only the Dell-installed video drivers, which are designed to offer the best performance with your Dell-installed operating system.
NOTE: As the resolution increases, icons and text appear smaller on the screen.
NOTICE: You can damage an external monitor by using an unsupported refresh rate. Before adjusting the refresh rate on an external monitor, see the
monitor user's guide.
