laptop screen won't stay on with lid shut
I need to leave the laptop screen on to watch movies on my TV via an HDMI cable from my laptop, but I'd like to shut the laptop lid. I went into power options and set the option to say "When I shut the lid ... do nothing," but the screen still shuts off as soon as I shut the lid. I set it both for the Balanced power option and the Powersaver option. I rebooted. Nothing helped. Any ideas?
thanks!
