Hi. I would like to know if there is a way to use Dual Display to play a game on my PBook screen, and then have AIM/web browser loaded on the other screen.


Also - when I connect my speakers, the audio doesn't go through them. I have a green cable, black cable. and tan cable - Creative speakers. Which one do I use and is there anything I have to do on the comp to get the speakers to work?

Assuming your speaker have power and are all connected properly, all you should have to do is plug them into the computer's headphone jack and they should work automatically. Are you sure the speakers are on? Not on mute?

What speakers do you have... if you have 3 cables I would guess they are a 5.1 system. The PB only has a 2.1 sound card (IIRC... dont own one yet). You would want to plug the green cable into your headphone jack and that should work. Consult your speaker owner's manual if you have further problems...
