I connected an external monitor to my laptop dell e1705 with nvidia 7900gs and now my laptop lcd is disabled. only the external monitor is working, FN+F8 cycles but only the external monitor is showing. how do i set my laptop lcd as the main display again? i tried changing it in the display settings but that didnt do anything either, nvidia control panel only shows my external monitor.uninstalling the nvidia driver doesnt help either.

The first key is Fn for Function, the second key I can't describe well, so I drew a picture.

It's F4 on my computer, on yours it could be different but all laptops im sure have them.

thanks kyle, i already tried the FN+F8 key to switch between crt and lcd, still my laptop lcd is not showing anything, there is backlight just no desktop. im wondering if the BIOS has been changed when i installed the driver for the external monitor, to set the external display as main and deactivated my laptop lcd.wonder if there is such a thing?

There could be an option with your video card to only output to one, but I'm sure you already checked that. When I hook up my tv to my pc or my laptop(both nvidia) they wont work. If I connect it before I turn them on they work perfectly fine. Doubt that is the problem though.
