    Google knows the answer!

    Seriously though, its an easy one to find.

    It should get it easily enough - First, check the settings on the projector, make sure you have the right display type chosen. Then hook up cable, press F7 (or Ctrl F7, whichever is applicable). If you still have nothing, reboot.

    If nothing, check your display settings in the display panel under sys prefs.
