Using video

Your computer is a powerful video device that enables you to watch streaming video from your
favorite websites and download video and movies to watch on your computer when you are not
connected to a network.

To enhance your viewing enjoyment, use one of the video ports on the computer to connect an
external monitor, projector, or TV. Most computers have a video graphics array (VGA) port, which
connects analog video devices. Some computers also have a high-definition multimedia interface
(HDMI) port, which allows you to connect a high-definition monitor or TV.

IMPORTANT:

Be sure that the external device is connected to the correct port on the computer,

using the correct cable. Check the device manufacturer's instructions.
