Why Won't My Dell Latitude D820 Show Anything on My External Monitor?

On your keyboard you'll see the function 8 key (F8). This is the key that controls flip-flopping between lcd/crt. You'll also see another key near the control key [Ctrl] called FN. FN is the function key. 

Try this key sequence to invoke the second/external monior:

FN + F8   (click these at the same time).

This should wake up the monitor!
