Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Setup problems laptop to external monitor

Sony Vaio laptop 17" widescreen and 20?" Samsung widescreen PC monitor and tv. TV and DVD input works fine on the new screen but when I try to use it for the laptop the picture does not fill the screen. If set at widescreen, it stretches the picture horizontally. If I leave at 4:3 it is in the right proportion but image sits in the middle with inches on all sides black. Computer store help suggested was to reduce the resolution - but all that does it distort the image proportions and cut some of the display off the separate monitor - kind of defeats the purpose of the bigger monitor. Just want to show exactly the same (but bigger) image on both, utilising the bigger area on the separate monitor - surely this is possible?
