Hello all.

Okay i got it all set up but when i close the lid of the macbook it gos to sleep i only want it to turn off the macbooks screen so i can use my ext stuff i got?
 
Yup.

Move the mouse around and it should wake up in a little bit. Make sure they're plugged in before you close it up.

Read/search around the term "clamshell mode" and you'll find everything you want.
