    There are probably missing XP drivers or utilities. Check the OEM site.

    We could suggest, or give links, but you didn't give your make and model
    number of the laptop. Look for graphics card drivers, keyboard drivers,
    and other mobo device drivers related to the projector ports. Utilities
    might include software that would "enable projector view" when Fn/F5 is
    depressed.
