Automatic switching to external monitor and back on VAIO Z

Hi.

My model number is VPCZ21C5E. It is 2011 Z series ultraportable laptop. OS is on Windows 7.

When I connect an external monitor's cable to the laptop - it does not automatically switch to it. I have to do Fn+F7 or Windows+P button. The same happens when I disconnect the external monitor cable - it does not switch back automatically.

I read an article where it says that in VAIO Control Centre I should go to Plug&Display section where I can fix it - but I don't have this section in my VAIO Control Centre software. I also thought of downloading Sony Notebook Setup software from Sony website, but it does not run on my laptop (gives a dll error).

I would be thankful for any suggestions on how to make this monitor switching automatic. Thanks in advance.
