Nothing there, unfortunately. The BIOS on this thing has only a few rudimentary settings.
-- connect the external display BEFORE powering up the computer
That's what I've been doing.
-- selecting a non-graphical boot mode from the CD (text-based or ncurses install) -- booting up with the laptop screen closed (and an external keyboard connected) or, alternatively, by just manually holding down the lid-closed switch/button.
I'll try these two and report back. Thanks ! -- Odd
