dynamix screen no signal until windows finishes loading
i dunno if this is normal but im assuming its not. my dynamix 8" doesn't receive a vga signal until the welcome screen from windows loads. this poses a minor problem because i'll never see the bios from my driver seat and if i ever receive a bios error i wont be able to see it. i'm not sure if this is normal but im pretty sure its a video card issue. is there anyway i can get it to load as soon as the bios screen comes on?

No thats definitely not normal. Could be a drivers issue, somethings causing only windows to recognise the video.
Could be a compatability issue between the motherboard/video card and the lcd.

I had this problem when in the BIOS I had "Monitor type" = LCD.
When I changed it to "CRT - 07" everything worked fine!!!
In my case, until windows were fully loaded, my LCD was showing "out of range".

like dom00 said, you probably have two video outputs and the one your dynamix is connected to is not the one that goes on first.
wish I could enable that, would be a nice feature for me, personally!

does the bios have anything like "vga initialise first" or something like that?
I think it's basically that the graphics card, by default, only outputs to the laptop screen, and then outputs to the external VGA as a second monitor. Somehow you need to, at the bios level, tell the laptop to use the external VGA. If you can't, you probably have to live with it (I think).

It's quite possible that you can't change this.
Personally, I don't see the problem though, i'd like this feature! No weird bios screens, straight into front-end.
If you want to use the BIOS, you just open the laptop (presuming you still have the lcd attached)
