Hi,
Go to the energy management and under "laptop lid" change the options to "turn of display" (or what it says exactly in English). Connect your external monitor and switch to it in the display menu and close the lid.

The laptop shouldn't go to sleep mode or anything and you should by able to use your laptop with only the external monitor.
I know all my screenshots are in German but I hope you understand what I mean ;D
