I am working on a project that requires turning on the external vga of a laptop. The output is initially turned off. The software has to be as automated as possible, with as little user interaction as possible. It is using an ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 and WinXP Pro SP2. I've looked at API calls and can confidently enumerate the display and monitors, but I can't seem to figure out dynamically enabling the ext vga and clone mode. I would prefer a solution that does not require a reboot. I installed UltraMon 2.7, and here are the specs from the About Window:
2 monitors, 1 disabled
Current desktop: 1024x768 (0,0 - 1024,768)
Monitor 1 - Plug and Play Monitor (primary):
Settings: 1024x768, 32-bit color, 60 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: 0,0 - 1024,768. Workspace: 0,0 - 1024,768
Video card: MOBILITY RADEON 9000
Device: \\.\DISPLAY1\Monitor0
Monitor 2 - Plug and Play Monitor (disabled, removable):
Settings: 640x480, 8-bit color, default refresh rate
Coordinates: 0,0 - 640,480
Video card: MOBILITY RADEON 9000
Device: \\.\DISPLAY2\Monitor0
Any suggestion would be very welcome!
Thanks,
Chris

UltraMon can't do this, I also don't know if it's possible without documentation.
This is something I'm going to look into for UltraMon 3.
