Lenovo G550 - how can I run three monitors

I've just bought a Lenovo G550 and am running Windows XP Pro on it.   So far so good.  I'm quite happy with it as I think it represents good value for the money.
 I have been able to run two external monitors on my G550 laptop - using the VGA port and the HDMI port.  But I can't get my laptop monitor to work to make it a third monitor.  Has anyone had any success with this and if so how did you do it.
Thank you.

Assuming, for the purposes of discussion, that the application allows you to display six windows, one for each stock, then if you were to use two 27" monitors, would the six windows properly arranged in the two monitors be sufficiently large to serve your purpose?  Your active window areas would be on the order of 900x500 pixels, assuming one of the plentiful 1920x1080 monitors.
Your other option would be two additional PCIe video cards.  From page 64 of your user guide, note the following:
Also, from the tech brief on the last G5 towers, note the following on page 10:
With any luck at all, our far eastern friend will be rising shortly and can provide a more definitive answer.

    You can upgrade to Snow Leopard, Lion or Mountain Lion (coming next month), but you need Snow Leopard to upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion. Check this web to know how to add memory to your computer and the memory that it supports (probably, 3 GB).

  • How can i use two monitors in my application?

    Hello,
    Background
    I have a dual monitor card and two monitors which I want to use in my LabView application. The application gathers data from a complex sensor and calculates a number of results which need to be displayed graphically, this happens every 10 seconds or so. There is an awful lot of graphs which may be needed to be seen at some time but not routinely. The idea is that one monitor will display all the standard routinely displayed things and will not have any user input whilst the second monitor will display a tab control which has all the other graphs pickable.
    Question
    What I want to know is how I can programmatically tell labVIEW to put one vi up in one monitor and another vi in the other. I would then have them both maximised (which I know how to do). I would rather have the monitors set up as individual and that way I could keep the windows control bar on one monitor only. Thus one monitor would be a true user interface and the other simply a display.
    Basically how do I tell LabVIEW to use one monitor for a specific vi and not the other.
    The card I have is a matrox p650. Any comments would be appreciated.
    Regards
    Kevin

    Hallo,
    with new version of LV its more easy, but it also hasn't any troubles with LabVIEW 6.x or 7.x.
    Especially with Matrox P650 you will get no any problems (we using
    exactly this card together with G550 and our application supported
    three monitors at the same time.).
    I recommend to you following sequence:
    - After installing driver turn on option for supporting different
    resoluton on different monitors. As result you will get two absolutely
    separate monitors.
    - In Windows define which one is primary and which one is secondary.
    (On primary monitor located taskbar and all messages dialog boxes will
    appear.).
    - Arrange secondary monitor in display properties - where he located (left from primary, or right)
    - In your VI (which must appear on second monitor) use
    FrontPanel.PanelBounds Property Node for positioning. You must set four
    values for two corners. Easiest way to found right values is following:
    read this property node in while loop and put indicator on front panel.
    Then run VI, drag front panel onto second monitor and resize if
    necessary, and then you will see right values for PanelBounds. You can
    write this property node programmatically in run-time too.
    hope it help,
    good luck.

  • How can I run 2 keynote presentations on 2 different macs with only one keyboard?

    How can I have 2 different keynote presentations that I want to run simultaneously through 2 different projectors, but I'd like to try and avoid using 2 keyboards - and use a hardware solution, rather than relying on my 2 fingers!! (it's a long conference!!!) thanks for any help.

    Open the CSS in DW, and use F10 to open the Code Inspector.
    Place the
    latter as needed.

  • How can I run a packet sniffer on a Router or Switch

    I have on my network several router 1700 series and switches Catalyst 2950 and I want to know how can I run ethereal on those babies to monitore what comes and goes

    The two most common methods would be (the old way) insert a hub (not a switch) in-line between the devices withthe traffic you wish to monitor or (the new way, for Cisco anyway) using port mirrroring.
    A hub (not a switch) will repeat every pulse that passes on the line to the analyzer.
    Since finding a new hub these days is virtually impossible (even some of the things sold as hubs are really switches), the more common way, at least in Cisco environments, is to "SPAN" (aka Port Mirroring) the port of the device whose traffic you'd like to monitor.
    Here's the setup guide for a 2950:

  • How can I run applications in full screen on my MacBook Pro?

    I recently started using an external HP w1858 monitor as a secondary display with my MacBook Pro. I'm having troubles with running applications in full screen mode on the secondary display. How can I run applications in full screen mode on the secondary monitor?

    If you always have the external display connected, you can configure the OS to consider it as the default or main display. Once everything is connected and set to your liking (resolution, color depth, etc.), "bless" the external display by clicking & dragging the menubar from the Mac's internal display onto the external. This only works if you are not using video mirroring.
    Once this is done, applications will open by default on the external and now "main" display and you can configure them to go fullscreen or whatever.

  • How can I get Activity Monitor to work?

    I've searched the discussions to no avail, so I have this question: how can I get Activity Monitor to work? It launches and its window opens but then the spinning beachball appears. I've checked the Console and it shows that the Activity Monitor is attempting to fully launch but then it "exits" and then it tries to fully start up again, goes into an infinite loop or something. Issued a "force quit" succesfully. I've deleted the Activity Monitor's .plist, no joy. What to do? Thanks!
    I'm running 10.6.8 on a MacBook Pro (late 2011)

    I wish I could be more positive but I have no experience of MacBook Pros and whether their demands on the system differ from my simple iMac.   If you have the time to scour through 'More like this' ( to the right of your initial post) and the links within it, you may find leads.
    I also found this thread via Google which in parts seems to echo your troubles.  I hope it helps; thank you for the star.

  • How Can I Run A SQLJ Normal Project In SAP NWDS

    I have a question about SQLJ in SAP NWDS.
    1.I created a java dictionary project,and then create the table , then depoly it.it's ok.
    2.I created a java normal project including the above java dictionary project.
    3.I used the SQLJ tech in the java normal project,exporting the opensqllib.jar,sqljapi.jar,sqljc.jar,sqljimpl.jar.
    4.I coded the normal project,and export the project .jar,everything is ok.
    <b>5.But when i runed the project in NWDS,the error appeared:java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sap/sql/log/OpenSQLException
         at com.ezkj.deom.sqlj.MainApp.main(MainApp.java:21)
    Exception in thread "main"</b>
    How Can I Run A SQLJ Normal Project In SAP NWDS?
    PLS Help me and don't let me alone!

    Tony,
    Why not try to import your SQLJ project in SAP NWDS. Add all the jars mentioned to the project path both for compile time as well as runtime. Now try running he project. Once you are able to bypass java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError, you will get other errors related to SQL statements. These Oracle SQL statements needs to be converted to OpenSQL format.
    Chill out!!!

  • How can I run the report for different input values at the same time?

    Reports version: Report Builder 6.0.8.13.1
    Oracle version: Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.0.0
    I want to run the same report for different input parameter values and spool each o/p to different file and ftp to a server. For this, as a first step, I am spooling different input values in to a file, reading those values through a loop and calling the report for that input values. Each report run/execution is taking 15 minutes. Total report execution is taking approximately 4 hours (assuming 16 different input values) to complete. So I have to wait 4 hours to see ALL outputs.
    I would like to run the report parallel for ALL the input values and I should be able to see the ALL outputs with in 15 or 16 minutes.
    In my shell script, I added & symbol at the end of the report call to start/run the job in the background. Due to this the control passed to the next step after the report call. At this place I have an ftp command to send the output file to a different server and it is giving error some thing like “o/p file is not available/created yet". This is due to the fact that report writer is NOT yet completely started/initiated or it is NOT completed the spooling.
    How can I run the report at the same time for all the input values and save the time?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kishore.

    Increase the number of server engines running right now it seems there is only one engine running ,increase it to 4 or 6
    and then atleast 4 or 6 reports will run simultaneously.
    For FTPing the output add to your sript to check whether it is locked and if not then only try to ftp .
    Also for more better functionality read the document (chapter 15 ) for 10g reports for its new fuinctionality.

  • How can i run a java class file from shell?

    Hi all,
    I've a .class file named "File" that contains Main method, it is in the package "File2".
    How can I run it by shell command?
    PS: "java -cp . file" doesn't work it launch->
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: File2/File (wrong name: File2/File)
    Thanks in advance.

    Just to understand: is File2 ar jar archive or not? If it is a jar archive, have you tried open File2.jar? If File2 is a directory within the current directory, have you tried java -cp . File2/File? I just tested with a set of classes and it works... Let me be precise:
    * Let us imagine you are working in a directory whole path is PathToDir/
    * in this directory you have the classes put in a directory called File2
    * in order to launch File.class then you would have to invoke :
    cd PathToDir/ (just to be sure)
    java -cp . File2/File
    *if you were to do the following then you would have the problem you describe
    cd PathToDir/File2/
    java -cp . File

  • How can I run a Flash Projector(exe) under GNU/Linux without wine?

    I was received a flash on projector type(exe), there's no another swf file on there.
    I'd like to ask: How can I run that on a Linux?
    Thanks for reading and paying attention.

    This sounds like a question for the linux distribution forum that you're using.  The .exe is a stand alone executable, if you can run win32 binaries then you should be able to run this.
    Thanks,

    If it's the latter then you need to make the jar file including a manifest.
    The manifest can be just a txt file with its content to be something like this:
    Manifest-Version: 1.0
    Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.7.1
    Created-By: Somebody
    Main-Class: NameOfTheMainClass
    Class-Path:
    X-COMMENT: Main-Class will be added automatically by buildTo make the jar file including the manifest, use something like this in your command prompt (of course you must have compiled your java file(s) first):
    jar cfm test.jar MANIFEST.txt NameOfTheMainClass.classAfter that you'd be able to run your application just by double clicking it.
    If you're a NetBeans user, you can build your standalone application by right-clicking your project and then going to properties => run => and choosing a Main class. After that right click on that project and "Clean and Build", locate the jar file in the "dist" folder and double click it =]
    Hope it helps,
