Hey SB,

My guess would be that the "projector" monitor is set for 800 x 600
resolution and the laptop monitor is set for 1024 x 768. Try resetting so
both monitors (via Start => Settings => Control Panel => Display =>
Settings) are set to the same resolution (1024 x 768 if the projector can
handle it, 800 x 600 if not, but have them the same in either case).
