Is there any way to connect a computer (portable) to an external screen with
resolution 640 x 240 (HVGA).
Do I need an extra driver, programming,...?

Regards

The first question is does it even have a PLUG to connect an external screen?

The second is, do you really mean the --->external screen<--- is 640x240?

If he's computer is a laptop same as mine (Acer travelmate 630) with
original OS (winXP) installed then the answer will be yes.

If it's not possible to find (I assume it's vga-card has two outputs) any
function for screen2 under advanced in properties for screen, he need
another vga-card driver or a software (not driver).

Yes to what?

Your Acer 630 isn't using 640x240 for either the internal OR external display.

Interesting. I would have guessed the 'portable' was one of those with a
HVGA screen and you wanted to use a normal monitor on it. Which is why I
asked

It would help to post some specs on the screen and the portable or, even
better, a link to their specs along with pictures.
