[QUOTE="milessthomas, post: 468452, member: 27943"] Clamshell mode is being able to close the monitor but still be able to use a external KB, Mouse, Monitor without it going on standby when you close the top. And yes there is a way... Go to Control Panel>Power Options>Advanced Tab Then go to where it says "when i close the lid of my laptop..." and choose [B][U]Do nothing[/U][/B] from the drop down. Hope I was right and this helped. Oh oh and...you can make it primary/mirror the main desktop by... Right click on desktop>choose properties>Settings Tabs> Click Identify, Then choose the external monitor that matches the external monitors screen number in the drop down list and click "use this device as my primary monitor" but don't extend your desktop to this device if you dont want to.
