Remove multiple monitors. __Laptop with Docking stations shows 6 monitors in Device Manager

HP Tablet

HP Docking Station with HP monitor.

Windows 7 Ultimate

The Manager of peripherals and devices and printers display 3 laptop screens and 3 monitors of the docking station.

I deleted the additional monitors in the Deviices and printers and their drivers listed in Device Manager.

But on reboot Windows 7 shows 6 monitors again!

If these 'extra' monitor entries don't cause problems, leave them alone.  It's pilots that will always place them when you remove them.

  • Tecra M5: Double monitors with docking station?

    Hello

    I have a Tecra M5 with docking station, in the past with other laptops, I was able to hook up a monitor by using the analog port and the other with digital and used both with the screen down.

    This seems not possible on this new, I have options to perform a monitor with the laptop or with a TV screen, but not two monitors to separate whole.

    Everyone was able to get this to work if so how? Graphix is the NVIDIA Quadro NVS btw.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It is very interesting, but all I know is not possible. I'm not sure at 100%, but for something like that you need a special graphics card that supports something like that.

    The same situation is with my Tecra. But the idea with two external displays is not bad. :)

  • Internal network card is cut off when I remove my XPS M1710 the docking station

    Hello

    I have a xps M1710 laptop. I normally use a docking station and the internal network card works fine when the laptop is in the docking station. But now when I remove the laptop from the docking station for the network adapter is disconnected.

    I know that it stops when the battery mode to save energy, but it is always closed when I connect to a power supply for laptop. I tried the plug before you turn on the computer and it does make a difference.

    It's not happened before and I have to go to the internet on my laptop earlier, when not to use the docking station.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  • How to set up two monitors on Lenovo T420 with docking station.

    I have a T420 on a docking station (cradle ThinkPad series 3, #4333710U)- and two monitors (each aprox 24 ").  I tried several variations using the NVIDIA display as well as the native Windows Display Manager (7) and am unable to render images on the two external displays.  Can someone please help?

    Hi John,.

    Thanks for posting your question on the Forum of 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. Did you do last changes made on your computer before this problem?

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

    3. All device drivers are updated?

    After reading your post, I understand that you want to use two monitors with extended view, then you can try the steps in the following Microsoft article and see if it helps.

    Move windows between multiple monitors

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/move-Windows-between-multiple-monitors#1TC=Windows-7

    If the problem persists, then pass to the below mentioned method 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:

    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.

  • External monitor like main screen for M200 with docking station

    Hi all

    I have a Tablet M200 with GeForce FX go 5200. I have a Toshiba docking station and an external LCD display. When it is docked, I would use the external LCD as main display and the LCD builtin as the secondary display. (I want the taskbar, icons and newly opened windows on the external screen when it is docked.)

    Unfortunately, I can't find the right combination of settings of this. If I put Windows to extend the desktop on the external screen, "use it as primary display" option is grayed out. I don't get the span horizontally or vertically options in the nView utility, just the Standard and the Clone (and this only if I do not extend to the office.)

    How can I get the external screen be the main while being the internal school?

    Thanks in advance!
    Kind regards

  • Dial-up connections - turn off WiFi on Wired connect with docking station

    Question: Do auto switch without Wired WiFi user interaction and back at Wired.
    Example - user leaves office/docking station with LAN wired to a meeting on WiFi then returned to their office/dock. Laptop can hit "sleep mode" on these steps as well.

    I am mobile Dell to Lenovo and new to AC - so far unsuccessfully disable WiFi on Wired connect. It is a breeze with Intel PROset + "adapter switching" and can be done manually with the Wifi of Dell drivers ('disable on Wired connect'). I assumed that Thinkvantage Access Conentions would be actually more robust than these. Should we simply use PROset even if it is not supplied with systems or is available for download for Lenovo T-Series? PROset method - http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/wlan/sb/CS-028815.htm

    Work to achieve this goal as a policy managed for multiple computers. AC is superb, but wish it had this parameter as Intel PROset.

    Hi Tpad - rex, welcome to the forums,

    Please take a look in the settings of the profile in the dial-up connections. (Select the profile and choose Edit profile). In the profile, you must have two maps showing; LAN and WLAN, make sure that the LAN exceed the WLAN in the priority list. I'm guessing you got it the other way around, you may set up there in a WLAN connection first?

  • Tecra M9 - save the settings of display with docking station

    Hey there.

    I have a user who has a Tecra M9 on a docking station.
    There are 2 monitors connected to the docking station with VGA, the other with DVI. I use the Nvidia Control Panel and configure the screens and all is good in the world.
    That is until the user off the laptop, some work at home, then puts the laptop in.

    Therefore, only one monitor works, with the second out of action.
    I can go back and reset the configuration, but the user does not want that to happen every day.

    Any suggestions on how to get the laptop to save your setting as the case not docked or anchored?

    Thank you!

    > That is, until the user off the laptop, work at home, then puts the laptop in.
    Do you know what the user did in the past?
    To my knowledge there is not any special options that could save it. If you click on the button (apply) the changes are made and recorded.

  • Tecra M9-104 with docking station - DVI resolution

    I wonder if anyone can help. I have a Tecra M9 - 104 running Windows XP. I also have the docking station to go with it. The great thing about the docking station, it's that it can out to two screens as the port on my M5 Replicator could not do.

    I bought two identical external screens that have a native resolution of 1440 x 900. I went into the Nvidia display configuration and set up to display both (one is plugged in VGA and one DVI port). However, the display on the DVI monitor is wrong. After further investigation I woke up the menu of the monitor on the screen to see that the resolution actually be issued is 1280 X 1024, despite Nvidia screen saying 1440 x 900 has been the output. Whatever I do, I can't increase the resolution on DVI port.

    The only thing I could find on Google and these support forums is that the maximum resolution on the DVI port on a port replicator is 1280 x 1024, but it was for the M1 and M2 series. This laptop is the last series and as such, I expected that the spec had been updated at this time.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Could be due to a limitation of the video driver on the laptop, or you can try to download a utility that requires to use a different resolution, its called Powerstrip (do not have a download link sorry).

    Be careful with it though, you can mess up your video driver

  • Tecra A10 - change of resolution with Docking Station problem

    Hello

    I own a Tecra A10 - 14Q and I like it a lot - it is a very beautiful piece of hardware, including the functionality of UMTS.

    When the Tecra is moored to the dock Express, and the external monitor (Samsung SyncMaster 22 "with resolution 1600 * 1200) is on defining the Office to be cloned on both screens, passes resolution of 1280 * 800 on the Tecra to 800 * 600 as"best resolution.

    I tried Intel and Mobility Center graphics settings, but I can't find a way to set I want to keep the resolution 1280 * 800.

    Suspicion to do so automatically is welcome. I found that a program that now lies on my desk that I run so it redefines the resolution to 1280 * 800, but I would like to stress that resolution remains just that it is.

    Kind regards

    YaGru

    Hello

    It's not easy to say why the resolution automatically decreases

    But sometimes, if the external monitor would be connected to the Tecra A10 directly without using the Express Docking Station?

    Otherwise the problem could be linked to the dock Express (Replicator of port express?)

    Maybe the 1600 * 1200 resolution on external monitor is too high for the express port replicator and so there are some questions which s my personal suggestion

  • Portege R700 with docking station may not automatically switch to the external display

    Hello!

    In the past, we bought a lot of A600, R500, S10, and always a docking station for every laptop here at Desjardins, we bought.

    Now we have a little problem with the new R700 model: PT318C - 00G 001,
    We bought 30 of them.

    WHY when we put in the tie-down (with the nearby screen) it can display automatically to the external display no/switch? (in this case a 22inc LCD)
    It is connect with the HDMI/DVI cable. And when we get the display by sliding in the graph of intel and media panel (V 6.14.10.5258), after a reboot of the docking, the screen is all buzzy... sometimes both screen are dark, and we must use a combination of keys to move.
    It's really not easy to use for our users...

    With the old model as the A600 or S10, all have always worked well, if we are on the dock, the pop screen directly on the external LCD, so I stopped him, ondock it and start up of all is well on the screen of the laptop.

    We are on Windows XP Pro SP3.

    I tried the utility Toshiba display device change and expansion Mobile from Toshiba. are not clear...

    Thanks for your help.

    Have you installed a version of vanilla from Windows? Or XP has been installed from the Toshiba Recovery Disc?
    Maybe you are missing several key structural factors (common modules for example). Also make sure that you use the drivers to display on the Toshiba site.

    Also try a BIOS update (v1.70 is the last one I think).

  • Android tablet with docking station: table of the emoticons are not more

    Skype for Android: since the last updated version, I can't view the emoticons for IM table. I use an Asus Android tablet placed on a docking station (external keyboard). When I click on the smiley face in the message new message, nothing happens. When I "right click" on the same smiley, it replaces a keyboard symbol. But no emoticon upward shwing.

    When I disconnect the Tablet from its docking station, no problem, it behaves as it should.

    Could you please solve this problem with the use of the docking station (external physical keyboard)?

    Thanks a lot beforehand.

    I did the same thing, and it works for me too!

    Thank you very much Alexnik! Great customer service.

  • Portege M200 - weird display with docking station problem

    Hello

    I use a Portege M200 with MS Windows Vista and the Toshiba docking station. Whenever I connected the system closed down it will start with low light and different screen resolution. The brightness can then be adjusted in Vista.

    To solve the problem, I have to disconnect it, then put it in PC Mode and finally stop Vista. With the next offline boot, it works correctly and can be re-docked. Maybe it's just a lack of understanding of the system? It seems that with a rooted boot, nVidia somehow takes place or is there different profiles?

    Thank you!

    Alexander

    Hello

    At first, I must say that Portege M200 is old enough laptop model and I really wonder that Toshiba supports this model of laptop for Windows Vista. You are really lucky in this regard.

    In any case very important is info which edition of WXP Tablet Toshiba offered tools for/disconnect. If I remember well, it was utilitarian Toshiba Mobile Extension. Using this tool you has been able to use different settings for Bay service as well as for output screen to choose the correct resolution.

    Under Vista it is controlled by Vista and, AFAIK, Toshiba does not have any special utility for this. You must also understand that procedure/disconnect (power switching power supply) is controlled by Vista and I can imagine that under Vista it does not work perfectly.

    My opinion is that there is not much to do, but I hope I'm wrong on this issue. Let's see what else users of forum about this.
