M1210 XP reinstall issue

Guys,

 

Thank you for support dummy like me. I got a question regarding to the external analog screen. 

 

I just reload a original XP system (not from the M1210 cd) since my IT guy lost it, I install all necessary programs and driver but still I am not able to get FN+F8 work properly. I select LCD+external display, have the cable plugin to the analog port,  quickset software is working, but the external screen still show blank to me.

 

The computer is for presentation only, now I am stuck because there is no signal to output.  Please help ~Thanks!

    Please  Be sure you have installed  the dell Notebook System Software  and the current video driver to enable  external video
