DVD and video file playback While you are playing a DVD disc-or while you are playing any video file in the AVI (Audio Video Interleave) or MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) format-these functions are not supported: > Switching among built-in display, external display, and simultaneous displays using Fn+F5. Select the display before starting the DVD player. > Modifying the resolution or color depth of your display. If you want to change these settings, do it before starting the DVD player. > Dragging the DVD/AVI playback window to the secondary display when using dual monitors in Windows 98. DVD/AVI playback is supported only on the primary display. Some combinations of color depth and resolution are not supported in DVD/AVI playback. If you receive an error message with a DVD, reduce color depth or display resolution. If your hp notebook has a DVD drive, you may have to manually install the DVD movie player. To do this, run c:\hp\programs\dvd\setup.exe. Switching to a TV display To switch to a TV display connected to the TV output port, use the TV icon in the system tray (to the right of the taskbar). The shortcut key sequence Fn+F5 switches between the internal LCD and an external display connected to the VGA port only. It does not switch to a TV display connected to the TV output port. Fn hot keys on an external keyboard When using combination hot keys (shortcut key sequences) on an external keyboard-which is equivalent to using the Fn key on the HP notebook keyboard-use the Ctrl and Alt keys on the left side of the external keyboard. For example, Left Ctrl+Left Alt+F1 on an external keyboard decreases the display's brightness. These features are not functional when using an external USB keyboard. Hibernate mode In Windows 2000 and Windows ME you can set a timeout to automatically enter hibernate mode. For Windows 2000, Windows 98 and Windows ME, the hibernate mode occurs automatically when battery power reaches a critically low level. It is possible to lower the critical low battery setting, however, HP does not recommend that you lower the defaults. Lowering the default values could cause your unit to not hibernate properly and could result in loss of unsaved data.
