• T410 does not connect to the docking station

  I have a Lenovo T410 and a docking station 4338. When I tried to join the computer to the docking station last night, he would not go. I don't see any obstruction or something wrong with the plug on each unit; the computer can't accumulate up as before.

  I have another station host I can try, which should help to determine which device is the problem, but I won't have access to him until next week.

  Have someone has encountered a problem like this? Any suggestions to correct?

  I compared the two docking stations and identified the problem. There are two plastic hooks built into the base, one to the right of the connector, one left and below. In a station works correctly these hooks are discarded because the computer is inserted, then spring back, now in place.

  On my post of malfunction the hooks were stuck, prevent the computer from insertion.

  I was able to fix the problem by pushing hooks with my finger, which take them off. If they stick once again I can try a Lube graphite.

• Tecra M11 - 17V - identify the serial port on the docking station

  I have a laptop Toshiba Tecra M11 - 17V, which I often use with the docking station that accompanies it.
  There is a DB9 serial port at the back of the docking station, but I don't know what COM Port.

  I use Windows 7.

  In the device, COM9 Manager - COM22 are identified as Port BT (bluetooth). Com7 - COM8 are RIM Virtual Serial Port v2, COM17 is Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port and COM18 is USB-Serial CH340.

  I thought that COM17 or COM18 were the most likely candidates, but have not been able to get to answer using one of them.

  I connect a Psion 5 (Comms app) to him and have developed ports and the Psion 8bits, 19200 baud, no parity, 1 stop bit.

  Hello

  > There is a serial port DB9 on the back of the docking station, but I don't know what COM Port, it is

  I think you have misunderstood something wrong
  COM ports in Device Manager are virtual com ports
  There is no link between a serial port and a virtual com port.

  I have a question: what docking station you have exactly?

  I had an express port replicator and this device required an additional serial port driver installation.

• X 220 does not sleep well in the docking station

  Hello!

  When my X 220 are in the docking station (3 ban) and mode 'sleep' it often just turns on again. I tried unplugging all devices (mouse, ext.keyboard, etc.) the station host, but with the same result. All the drivers and so on are updated.

  Anyone have the same problem and/or for any solution?

  Hey ThinkVegard,

  I would double check your Power Manager setting and make sure they are properly defined and are not wake your computer the. There are a few settings in the BIOS that can do the same thing and suggest you checking these too just before we have to start looking elsewhere.

  Best regards

• Laptop with docking home & two monitors... need to get laptop to work after the withdrawal of the docking station

  It drives me crazy.  I have a work Dell laptop connected to a station host and two double monitors. It works very well at the office that I work mainly on two large dual screens.  When I remove the laptop from the docking station and bring home the computer starts and displays a portion of my homescreen (like an extended display).  But I can't do anything else with it. I can't access my files or anything.

  What I want to do now that I'm home with my laptop is to redo the settings so that the laptop is my main screen.  The normal methods of right click and change the screen resolution do not work because I can't access my Windows start tab.  Any ideas...

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  I would be grateful if you can provide us with the following information to determine the root cause of the problem.

  1. What is the number and model of your computer and the graphics card?

  2. Have you tried to monitor primary as secondary and vice versa?

  3. All device drivers are updated?

  Windows can detect automatically that an additional screen. If you connect two or more monitors, you must manually designate the primary display, arrange your desktop, and apply display settings, such as color depth and screen resolution. So, the next time that you connect these monitors, Windows automatically identifies the primary display and applies the settings that you previously specified for each additional display.

  Try the methods mentioned below and see if it helps.

  Method 1

  If you haven't tried Exchange monitors so I suggest you to try and see if the problem still occurs.

  To change the settings of two monitors you can consult the links below:

  Change settings display on multiple monitors

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/change-display-settings-on-multiple-monitors

  Note: This link is also applicable for Windows 7 .

  Method 2

  If the problem persists I suggest you to update the display drivers. As the display drivers for two monitors are not the same, so try to update and check the status.

• sound on laptop lost when it is connected to the docking station

  laptop connected to the docking station and audio comes through the audio connection [headphones] on docking station.  No sound on computer

  Hello

  ·         If it works well before? If so, remember to do recent changes on the computer before this problem?

  When you connect the laptop to the docking station, the default audio output device will automatically change to the docking station. Similarly, in the case of plug in the headphones on laptop. I suggest you to check if the audio device by default from computer speakers is properly defined. Follow these steps:

  a. click the Start button, select Control Panel, click hardware and soundand then click sound.

  b. click the read tab make sure that the correct default audio device is selected. (For most users, the default audio device is pregnant.)

  c. If your default device is not set to the right audio device, on the read tab, select the appropriate device, click Properties, click the Advanced tab and make sure that the default Format is set to the value you expect. When you are finished, click OK.

  d. on the read tab, select the playback device, click set upand make sure that the configurations are set correctly.

  If the sound settings are set correctly and that your speakers are already set as default device, go to "Check if an audio driver is installed" now.

  e. Select the audio device you want as audio device by default, and then click set as default.

  f. click OK to save your settings.

  For your reference, follow the steps described in the following link:

• Laptop + LPT (on the Docking station) is working?

  Installation program:

  Host: 6.5.3 on Windows XP SP3 (laptop + docking station)

  Comments: Debian 5.03 (doesn't really count)...

  After I have add the parallel port (with the laptop docked, of course) and start the virtual machine, I get the error:

  09:58:53.723 Jan 04: vmx | Serial0: using auto detection backend LPT1.

  09:58:53.723 Jan 04: vmx | Serial0: do NOT open the parallel port driver
  .\Global\VMparport1 error 0 x 2-ParallelHost_DeviceConnect()

  09:58:53.723 Jan 04: vmx | Msg_Post: error

  09:58:53.723 Jan 04: vmx | http://Msg.parallel.badDriver could not open VMparport driver for LPT1: the operation completed successfully

  09:58:53.723 Jan 04: vmx | http://Msg.device.badconnect unable to connect the virtual device Serial0.

  I did a search on LPT port parallel, found very little.

  Issues related to the:

  (1) when I installed VMWare, I don't have the docking station attached. This causes a problem? I moved back with her to dock, if anyone thinks that this will help

  (2) I understand about the limitations of devices on the "motherboard". Is a docking station a motherboard or an external device?

  Properties (on the host), he lists as:

  "on Intel(r) ICH9M - E LPC Interface Controller - 2917' so I think that it is considered as part of the motherboard.

  In addition, the driver installed is the standard XP OS driver:

  "C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\parport.sys.

  I tried the two autodetect and specifying the port existing (LPT1).

  (3) the vmware tools are NOT installed in one of the guests. -Is this necessary?

  (4) also tried logging on to the host computer with administrator privileges (normally I run as a user on the host). Didn't seem to make a difference.

  Any suggestions?

  Workstation 7.x is not an option right now (too many bugs for me right now)

  Thank you.

  Verify the existence of these files in the systemroot\system32 folder

  vnetinst.dll

  vnetlib.dll

  Verify the existence of this file in systemroot\system32\drivers

  vmparport.sys

  If they are it would be really better everything clean and re-install.

• "Another device on the network use my ip address".

  I tried to check my mail and could not and got this message "another device on the network use the IP address of your computer." I have never seen it before. He also said that I could change the IP address, if I continued to have problems. I bought this iMac and used Migration to transfer all the stuff from my old iMac that is still used. That was months ago, but I never had this message up to now. So should I change one of the IP addresses? And if so, how is that done?

  http://osxdaily.com/2010/09/19/another-device-on-the-network-is-using-your-Compu ters-ip-address.

• That means "another device on the network use the IP address of your computer"?, that means "another device on the network is using the IP address of your computer?

  That means "another device on the network use the IP address of your computer"?, that means "another device on the network is using the IP address of your computer?

  A

  Most likely, the computer becomes a network address of a router. The assignment of an address ("lease") expires and must be renewed after a certain period of time, which could be an hour or a day. The lease expired without being renewed because the device has been disconnected at the time. Meanwhile, the address has been leased to another device on the network, or maybe the router has not updated its list of addresses the leases. When the device offline comes back online, a conflict results. Depending on the type of router you have, the conflict can resolve itself automatically. If not, then in the menu bar, select please

  ▹ System Preferences network ▹ 

  If the preferences window is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Click the Advanced button, and then select the TCP/IP tab in the sheet that drops down. Look at the menu option

  Configure IPv4

  If the selection in this menu is

  Using DHCP

  Click on the button

  Renew the DHCP lease

  Test.

  Make sure that you have more than one DHCP server on the network. That could happen if you have more than one access point Wi - Fi, or if you have a router and broadband a wide device distinct in connection mode sharing.

  B

  Less likely, you have a network address that you assigned yourself and another device is itself by assigning the same address. In this case, the selection to configure IPv4 menu will be either manually or using DHCP with manual address. This kind of conflict will not be resolved automatically. You have the following options to solve:

  1. Change the selection in menu using DHCP.
  2. Change the address assigned manually to one that is not used by another device.
  3. Change the address of the other device.

  Which of these options you choose depends on the details of why you use a static IP address. Any changes you make to the network settings is necessary before taking effect. To do this, click OK, and then click apply.

  If the router is also your device at wide band, then he may be operating in bridged mode. In this case, only one customer at a time will be able to connect to the Internet. Consult the manufacturer or ISP documentation for how to reconfigure the device in the connection mode sharing.

  C

  According to a report a "DirectTV" receiver can cause the problem. If necessary, disconnect the device from the network, or power off and test. Consult the support services provider.

• Satellite click Pro P30W-2B - the docking station battery not charging

  Hello

  I have a Satellite click 2 Pro 30WB; at first, I didn't have any problem with this product, but a few months does not charge the battery of the docking station. I am able to load only the Tablet battery.

  Can someone help me?

  Thank you

  Hmm... If this problem has appeared since the first day of the purchase, the home question battery might be related to battery failure.
  In this case, you will need to contact the service to fix.

  But just one question: it's your BIOS up-to-date?
  Check the update in the station of service and if available new version of BIOS; try to update the BIOS to the latest status.

• Tecra M5 - crashes when you use the docking station - fan at full power but no start the thread

  Hi all

  As I say, I have intermittent problems where the machine crashes when you use the docking station. Sometimes at the beginning of the startup of windows then stalls and powers of fan at full power. If I take off the base of the machine, it works fine.

  I bought this machine because I had one in my previous job and he had found great. However, my only previous also had this problem sometimes when lashing...

  Any assistance received very warmly.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Stand by. You have noticed this behavior when the laptop is OFF, connect to the docking station and after doing this you turn. Am wrong me or have I misunderstood something?

  Maybe's external screen connected to the docking station?

• Two external monitors can be connected to the docking station?

  Is it possible to connect two external monitors to a docking of HP 2740? If so, how it is with 1 single VGA port on the docking station. The tablet which is embodied is a HP Elitebook 2760P.

  Yes, you got that right.

  He landed again until what's available / condition on the 2nd external monitor. These days most of them VGA, HDMI and DVI while that few of them have display port too.

• Clock freezes in the docking station

  I have the docking of Milestone 2 and recently I found the clock freezes randomly while my phone is in host mode. The separator flashes but the time does not update. This affects the main clock display and the time in the notification bar.

  If I lift the phone out of the docking station or press the power button two times then the time updates immediately. This problem is intermittent, sometimes the clock works normally, at other times, it will freeze. Earlier tonight for example it froze, I lifted it out successor and it froze again. I repeated the process and it works correctly (for now at least). I restarted the phone, but the issue does not appear to be linked to the availability, as I experienced it immediately after a reboot.

  I have seen this issue a few times on the retail firmware, the Milestone 2 was released last year.

  This question seems to have been fixed with the update, which will be published shortly in Europe.

  I will announce when it is available.

• No bass when you use the docking station to not probe

  When I use the out port of my docking station (Series edited by moderator) I get no bass sound, just hail my wide range speaker. When the speakers are plugged into the headphone jack directly on the laptop it normal sound, with a full range of sounds. I checked the setting in the CP of its speakers are identified as the range, so this isn't the issue. There is no sound improvement enabled in Control Panel SRS. I'm puzzled. Why no bass when you use the docking station only. I tried two different docking stations with the same result: no bass.

  

  Yes! I finally solved it on my system:

  • Go to the control panel
  • Choose the material and audio

  or simply to display all Control Panel items

  • Select SRS Premium Sound Pro (it's an icon of circle blue/white)
  • Wait for the program to come black EQ
  • Select the tab/words "listening experience" near the top of the window of SRS Premium Sound PRO
  • Uncheck the 'improvement of Audio '.

  Fact

  In addition, there is the graphic equalizer in there that totally works well to further fine tune your desired speaker and the audio preference.

  

• The docking station is friendly with battery

  Hello!

  First post here, not the user lenovo at the moment but I'll receive a lenovo R61 with mini dock station.

  My question its more general. I heard a lot of time to removed the battery from my laptop when I work in the sector do not overheat and kill the battery life.

  To the docking station, stop charging the battery when it is full.

  Thank you.

  Tom

  Tom, welcome to the forum,

  The battery stops when it is full, whether it's in a cradle or attached to a power adapter.

  Alternatively, you can change the thresholds of charge based on your usage using the software of energy Manager tool that is included.

  Enjoy your new ThinkPad when it arrives.
