Control Panel, Display, Settings tab, make sure the Display pull down lists the right video card, Advanced button, Troubleshooting tab and there should be a slider bar.

its to do with video overlay i think...i've had this at work. On some Laptops..you cant have the display on the screen of the computer and on the projector at the same time. There is a function key to press (something like f5 i think) that will stop the image being displayed on the screen and just send it to the projector. Then press the same keys again to get it back

Fn + F5 for example

Yeah, it's Fn + F5 on my Sony and you have to have it showing on only the TV-out for it to work properly.
