Are you using a desktop/tower PC or laptop?

OK, you need to activate the external display adaptor by a key combination. On most laptops there is a Function key on the bottom left. Usualu blue text and abreviated to 'Fn'. You will then see on your top row of keys F1 F2 F3 etc, one of these will also have blue text that says CRT/LCD or a picture of an external screen. You need to press your 'Fn' and hold it down while you press the CRT/LCD key. This will switch between the different video modes, these vary between laptops so you will need to play around, but this should activate your projector.

If you think Media Play is good, try download Win Amp and look at the visuals you get with that!
