The machine is hooked to the TV so I did all my debugging using the TV |
15 |
and never used a normal monitor at all. On these machine I have to |
16 |
choose a specific output - TV or monitor - in BIOS. My experience with |
17 |
these Asus machines is the Phoenix BIOS didn't do a good job of |
18 |
auto-selecting which output to use and I didn't want to confuse things |
19 |
as my needs are TV only. I think I tried a monitor once, probably got |
20 |
a blank screen, and then gave up and just used the TV from there on. |

In your friend's case, if she's using a monitor sometimes and a TV |
23 |
sometimes, then that's beyond my experience on these boxes and you are |
24 |
unfortunately more on your own. I know the machine will drive a |
25 |
monitor - I have a 3rd that I use that way - but I've not had luck |
26 |
getting it to switch back and forth on command, although I haven't |
27 |
tried very hard. |

Good luck, |
