You can disregard my other response. It turns out the laptop does have that very key combo to use external monitor, so I'm logged in to the os thru that mechanism and can now create an image with onboard software. Thanks Mick... I didn't know or remember there being such a switch but a quick google confirmed your first thought of Fn+F4, and looking hard at the F4 key, I see a representation of something that could be a monitor with ON/OFF images portrayed. Thanks
