**Special Note For Projectors Using USB Connections**
We have experienced difficulties with users using a projector with a USB
connection. It seems that third party software many times is required to
properly setup dual monitors. When possible, it is best to use a direct output
(VGA, DVI, HDMI, S-Video) from your machine's video card. If a USB connection
is your only option please carefully read the manual from the manufacture on
proper setup.

I am using high amounts of RAM when showing PowerPoint or Impress slides
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The reason OpenLP usa greater amounts of RAM is because it does not load the
presentation by itself. OpenLP uses PowerPoint or Impress to load the
presentation. Then OpenLP displays images of each slide. This results in the
higher than expected RAM usage.
OpenLP is not displaying correctly, or on the correct screen

Please read the documentation on :ref:`dualmonitors`. It is very important to
have dual monitors setup properly for OpenLP to function as expected.
