Laptop screen + 2 monitors

I run my T420 on a docking station.

Basically, I want to use the laptop screen and two separate screens.

Is this possible?

I tried, but it doesn't seem to detect one of the screens.

You have several options.

1 adapter USB2DVI

2 eGPU/Vidock

3 Displayport splitter.

  • Third screen is grayed out (laptop + 2 extra monitors)

    Hello!

    Using two monitors for video editing for a while now and finally got rid of an old computer and I could save the monitor she (is be the exact model of the extra monitor I use already - Dell 1505FP). My computer is a mobile entertainment pavilion dv4-1465dx. I really wanted to do a 3 wide screen (Dell monitor on laptop from left, embossed in the Middle, Dell monitor on the right), but I've read that most of the consumer level graphics cards can not handle / made this extra monitor, but because I couldn't find the specifications for mine I assumed that since I have available ports I'm able to turn it on. Not to mention that the ethernet and card reader, I have:

    VGA

    This HP port

    HDMI
    ESATA

    2 additional USB ports

    My current attempt use a monitor with a VGA connection and the other with a DVI to HDMI adapter cable. In Control Panel, I can see that the computer recognizes the third screen, but the image is dimmed and shows "disconnect this view." When I try to change it, it just comes back to the same thing and do not apply the changes. I can do all kinds of configurations - but that you are unable to accept all 3 as an extended display.

    In the advanced settings (ctrl + alt + F12) it also doesn't let me all 3 at once, but one monitor arrives as "monitor Dell... "while the other rises as"digital display Dell... ". "Can this cause anyting to do with him?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is what I can do with my current available options or is there something I need to buy to do this?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    A high-end gaming laptop will support 3 monitors (including the main screen). If you want to use the following specifications for 3 monitors OR video editing, you bought a bad machine:

  • Monitors of switching with a laptop screen

    Ok. I have a HP Compaq Presario V5000 running on Windows XP and the screen is broken. When I turn the backlight turns on but that's all. I don't know if it has to do with the inverter or whatever, but is it possible to change my default display to an external monitor without the screen of my laptop?

    Hi Yo-Yo123,

    It is not possible that the laptop screen is broken. We recommend that you contact the manufacturer of the system for more support options.

    As the laptop does not start, try to run by using the last known good configuration to restore it to its last working state.
    see How to start your computer by using the last good known Configuration .
    b. check to see if you are able to start the computer.

  • My laptop (Dell Inspiron only 3 months old) is displayed on an external monitor, but not on the laptop screen. I am running Windows 7.

    My laptop (Dell Inspiron only 3 months old) is displayed on an external monitor, but not on the laptop screen. I am running Windows 7. It was running and display very well last night. When I turned on this morning the monitor lit up but show just a gray-white screen and no office. When I attached an external monitor, I could see desktop and all other programs and Windows 7 routines seem to work very well.

    MB

    Press the Windows logo key and the p key, and then set up the PC to display on the built-in monitor only cycle through with the arrow key.  You can make this Store if you want - key Windows-p, right arrow once, paused for a few seconds & the laptop monitor should then appear normally.

    You can do so at the end of each session using the external display while you are ready for the use of the laptop on its own later.

  • (Laptop HP-2000) White screen, external monitor works.

    (HP 2000 Notebook PC / Windows 8.1, 64-bit) Still white screen, external monitor works fine. What components could be defective? This occurred about six months ago about a week after the expiry of the one year warranty. Nonfortuitous.

    Hello

    You confirm this problem is intermittent, and now its working fine, it means that the question would be the display cable. The display cable is loose. Issue can be fixed by rebonding the display cable, if the problem persists then the display cable needs to be replaced.

    This is the only reason why I asked you in the previous post if the problem was intermittent or display changed while moving the display cover.

    This particular problem has nothing to do with the temperature.

    Kind regards

  • upgrade for HP probook 455 laptop screen full HD

    Hello

    I have a probook 455 and I wanted to know is there any screen full hd or hd + corresponding to this model?

    I think my lcd is like this:
    http://www.LaptopScreen.com/English/model/HP-Compaq/ProBook~455~G1 ~ (F2P93UT).

    and I read this link:
    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-video-display-and-touch/HP-ProBook-4540s-upgrade-laptop-screen...

    I want to know if other hp LCDs or other brands can be used? Help me if you know the full hd or hd + lcd model.
    in fact, I am not satisfied with contrast of 455

    Yes and no.

    Not as long as the computer and the components are designed to best suite with eachother. So manufacturers will not support using incompatible parts if custamization is accepted.

    Yes because there are technicians who can mix and match components but the combination must look and regular maintenance. I would not advise this as it can be found in failutes and questions.

    Workaround would be to buy a monitor (ecternal) HD and plug it in. There are n number of options in the HD monitor of your choice.

  • Qosmio G20-139: use the laptop screen to play on the Xbox 360

    Hi I have a question about the monitor function with the G20-139,

    I have an xbox 360 and would like to know if there is a way to use laptops screen to play on the 360 in high definition or composite mode using the monitor function. With the laptop came a composite cable at one end and a sort of headphone 3.5 mm at the other.

    I read the manual about the case and it does not work.

    Any help would be appreciated thanks

    Hello

    The port monitor - where you can connect with the composite cable can be used to display video from your digital camcorder, video game or VCR on the internal LCD screen. It can be used as a line-in port to allow the connection of a stereo device for audio input.

    In my opinion, you also need this cable to connect the Xbox to the Qosmio with composite cable plug-in software component.
    http://www.madcatz.com/default.asp?page=257&CategoryImg=Xbox_360_Cables

    Then to commence the Qosmio with the Monitor-in button that starts the Qosmio player.

    Why?
    Who knows what have you that your screen is white?
    My screen is not white it shows everything correctly.

    The same white screen will appear on the external monitor?
    If so, then this problem may be related to faulty graphics card, if no, your laptop computer s display can be defective
