new here, need a little help

Hi guys and girls, im new here, and just picked up my first hackintosh. Granted all of the hard work was done for me but it has definately given me the bug to build a monster machine.

Anyway it's a samsung nc10 netbook with OSX 10.6.3, i have a few niggly problems that i need help with: firstly when i plug in an external monitor to the vga port, the screen on the netbook will refresh but will not show anything on the external? any ideas?

next up i have office 2011 for mac, but due to the small screen size i cannot get past the welcome help page on any of teh office suites as the button to press is off the bottom of the screen, i did see a link with a workaround to this problem but unfortunately the page is no longer there.

thanks in advance for any help.

brian.
