Using video

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.

IMPORTANT:

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

correct cable. Follow the device manufacturer's instructions.

For information on using your video features, refer to HP Support Assistant.
