• Several monitors x201T with ban

  I'm looking for the simplest way to use 2 or 3 external monitors in mode 'Extend' with my x201T-0831 moored to the dock of 200 ban.  I don't need great resolution, just trying to keep organized with many projects using Outlook, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc. - several windows open at the same time.  Have VGA screens, but loans to buy more if necessary.  Would appreciate any help.  Found wires for other models of Lenovo referring to third-party products, but I can't say which is better for the x 201 for this type of need.

  Thanks for any help!

  Thank you, Danielle.

  I followed your links.  As I watch the T410s ban at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-76519&selectarea=SUPPORT&tempsel..., it seems that the connectors are slightly different between the ban and the one I have, the x 200.  On the T410 ban, there are two DVI ports and a VGA port.  On the x 200 ban, there is a VGA port at the back, next to a DisplayPort, and there is no DVI port.  The x 201 Tablet has a VGA port on the left side of the tablet itself, but I'll assume that is disabled when the Tablet is rooted in the x 200 docking ban.

  I'll start with the assumption that I need to get a second monitor connected to the docking ban and use the DisplayPort port to do.   Since I was extra VGA monitors on hand, I'll buy Lenovo DisplayPort to VGA (analog only) cable from monitor part number 5794393 http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-70321.  I'll try to get two VGA monitors upward and running in the configuration "Extend".  I will present on the progress made in the coming weeks.  Thank you.

  Update and additional comments:

  It is now December 3, 2010, twelve days after that I started this answer.  Additional measures:

  1. I looked more closely at two monitors that I have, and have all both DVI and VGA ports.  I realized that most of the monitors, at least for the past five years, have this system double connector - I just used the VGA connector since it's what I do since the 1980s and I never had a reason to learn more about DVI.  I decided it was the right time to learn something new.

  2. I ordered the single-link DVI - D Monitor Cable DisplayPort / http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:item.detail?...

  I found this on the main Web page of Lenovo USA by following the links store > Accessories > cables and connectors.  This is the fourth element displayed on the first page.  Cost of $27.13 including taxes and delivery United States.  Arrived today, so 12 days to fill orders.  The cable has Lenovo part number 45J7915.  Of interest, the date of manufacture for the part is '2010-11-27' and 11/29 China shipping date.  This looks like something that could probably also be purchased in both major electronic supply store.

  3. I followed the instructions at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-76519&selectarea=SUPPORT&tempsel..., kindly provided by Danielle.  I found that it worked better print 3 pages of instructions so that I have didn't disable images of instruction I changed monitors.

  4. I thought that instructions, intended to be the ThinkPad T410s, were very clear and I just had to adjust my thinking a bit because the X 200 ban has a different configuration for the connectors on the back.  On the X 200 ban, the connector remains blue VGA of the Middle when seen from behind.  There is only a single DisplayPort connector rather than two, and that is a black (not white) just to the left of the blue VGA port.

  5. After following the correct sequence listed in steps 1 through 4, I found that my monitor connected to the VGA port, designated as "Monitor 2", remained black.  I had a picture on the Thinkpad x201T (listed as "monitor 1") and the DVI monitor, listed as "monitor 3".  I was able to use both monitors in extend mode, so that I could drag the arrow of the mouse smoothly through to the next screen.

  6 I then to the "Troubleshooting" of this same step "Setup multiple views for ThinkPad T410s", more precisely in the line:

  "If you followed steps 1 through 4 and one or more of your screens does not connect, then you must change the display screen resolution."

  By clicking right on the display screen, I was introduced to the great tool for the configuration of multiple screens.

  I had several stumbling blocks to work through, and my experience could be useful to other readers:

  (a) I confirmed what others have said I am only able to watch two monitors, not three, with this configuration.

  (b) Resolution display is a misleading title of the window that appears when you have more than one monitor connected.  A more accurate title would be "set up multiple monitors - select duplicate or extend Mode, decide who monitors, designate which monitor is the primary monitor is connected and disconnected, and set the resolution for each monitor.

  (c) the configuration that I opened the screen resolution window showed that 1 monitor, the ThinkPad LED display, the VGA monitor as Monitor 2 and DVI Monitor 3 monitor.  The physical layout on my desk, from left to right, was 2-3-1.  The DVI monitor features a 22 "display, VGA has 19" and I wanted the larger screen directly in front of my external keyboard and mouse.   Resolution of the pictorial display screen showed the monitors installed (from left to right) 3-2-1, 3 and 1 blue and (active), and 2 gray (inactive).  I got confused trying to drag the mouse from one screen to the other to the first mouse seems to hit the left wall of the ThinkPad screen and and do move to the left on my screen more grand, who showed a great wallpaper.  I finally realized that if I moved the arrow to the right wall of the ThinkPad, he moved smoothly on the big screen.  The mouse arrow and screens are behaving as the pictorial resolution screen display showed the monitors built (from left to right) 3-2-1, not that I had actually prepared physically on the my table.  I was fooling around with by dragging images autour in display screen resolution pictorial until this photo with the real physical layout.

  (d) I had to then select the left (VGA) monitor as the primary monitor.  I've learned to follow the caveat to push "Apply" with each individual before moving on to the next step.

  (e) once I had unchecked the main monitor, the screen of ThinkPad, I was free to designate the ThinkPad screen as 'disconnect this Display.

  (f) once the ThinkPad screen was off, I was free to choose monitors 2 and 3 as active monitors in extended display Mode and move the mouse easily throughout the whole of the left edge of the screen 2 (my monitor of the left hand) to the right edge of the monitor 3 (my Center and the larger screen).  1, the ThinkPad screen monitor, remained gray.

  (g) a minor bug, when I clicked on the 'Apply' button for each of these changes, nothing happened.  I have to click it a second time to apply to commit.  (I use Windows 7 x 64, updated weekly)

  (h) another minor obstacle was that I had to get the best resolution for a monitor before I designated as primary monitor.  I got stuck a couple of times with a resolution too large, unable to see all of the icons or the taskbar in Windows 7.

  (I) now that I'm all together to the top with several monitors, my first experience, I realize that a more fluid experience would be if all monitors were of the same size of the screen, closely aligned together at the same height.  With my current setup, a monitor is 3 "higher than next to him, and the resolution is different between the two screens. MTY eyes must make two adjustments that I scan back between two screens.

  Thanks to James for his excellent help!  It also has the same information published on the website of T4190s: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/How-do-I-setup-multiple-display-for-the-Thi...

• 4 monitors with X 220?

  Yes, Yes, I know.  But it seems that the new X 220 will be robust enough and even if it is the bridge of the integrated graphics, sand looks promising.

  The configuration of my favorite would be to use ports, displayport and vga on the ban for two of the monitors, and then two more connected by USB using a device such as the EVGA UV more (which as I understand it uses a compression chip to deliver graphics by USB but still used the computer resources to treat the graphics).

  Another possibility, if necessary, would be to connect an external PCIe ExpressCard port hunts and use an external graphics card true.

  All monitors are 1920 x 1080.  I will not use productivity applications, except that I can play full-motion video on one of the external monitors (which I'll plug on the displayport).

  So am I on crack?  When you set up the laptop, what is more important to max out?  RAM?  Processor?  The two equally important?

  Thank you for your understanding.

  Thoughts of display technology:

  The displayport interface is supposed to offer the support of multiple monitors by itself with an adapter. Look at the displayport technology and see if it will work for you. I had trouble finding monitors with displayport well. I think that a group of suppliers have agreed to remove the VGA port in the future. You should probably look into that as well.

  Choice of hardware warranty thoughts:

  One thing to remember, the Lenovo warranty applies only to Lenovo hardware purchase or authorized retailer. Parts such as memory, hard drives, wifi cards, etc... (guaranteed batteries are a special case). Certainly, some companies hard drive offers its own guaranteed, and it may be the case even for memory as well. Just be careful to not voiding your warranty of Lenovo computer if you decide to tinker with after purchase.

  Intel HD Graphics thoughts:

  According to a 220 video x, the second generation, I have carrots is supposed to be twice as fast graphics wise like the first generation I have carrots. Unfortunately, I don't have a second generation, I have Core x 220 mobile, but I have a first generatrion I top level x 201 Core i7 - 620 M (). Netflix HD Streaming works well at 1080 p on a 60 Hz. DVD screen and BluRays are working well to 1080 p on a 60 Hz. display HD Cameras are good as well that Microsoft has finally fixed mine. With a few new games, the x 201 is a little bit short meeting that minimum listing some on high end games. I don't see a problem with graphically work art packages. Video editing and programming of business applications should not be a problem either. Presentations on the VGA port with some projectors may have some problems. Give yourself pletty of the time of the installation if you have not used the front projector. The spotlight will not be a problem with the x 220.

  Thoughts of discrete graphics:

  I think that high-end desktop graphics are crazy and ridiculous now. Consumption requirements is like having two separate computers. Do not forget, that most of the highend stuff takes two LONG slits of a desktop machine. There are liquid cooled by a slot options, but mainly things like using too much power. That apply to your laptop, and you'd probably need to carry a car battery to do the job. The 220 x is not a portable game uber kind of stuff requires a lot more circuits and cooling systems. The 220 x is in the ultraportable category.

  Thoughts of operating system:

  I think that Windows 8 may be available next year some time. It is supposed to support chips ARM based in addition to what we have now. Looks like a hairball 32-bit, 64-bit and now ARM.

  Thoughts of external Port:

  Port Thunderbolt Intel looks like a winner for external speed in the future. Port Thunderbolt Intel is assumed initially twice as fast in the Port of USB 3.0 and increase from there in the future. Maybe a 221 x would get the Port Thunderbolt Intel in the future, but I don't know about it.

  Other ideas of calculation:

  Waiting always seems to give a better option for the calculation, but then again your not to make any progress in the meantime. I just helped my mother buy a Thinkpad Edge of a store selling retail knowing that the second generation I have carrots go roll. She had to get up to speed on Thinkpad T43 was just too slow and the CPU fan was wrong. The computer on which she had lived a hard life for several years. I know how she uses the computer and 2 x improved graphic speed would not really important to her. She made a bargain for $750, and it is easier to transfer his stuff with two work computers.

  Overall thoughts:

  If you're going to order CTO, Max the processor, memory and hard disk preferences. Examine the wireless options, Intel wireless display seems to fancy and Nice, but if you don't use it, there is not much value until sell you it to someone who does not want to use it. Close look at the CPU options as well, if you are running the virtual machine software, you can see Intel Ark pages to get the right CPU. If you want to run the drive encryption, Intel Ark may be useful for this page as well. Large amounts of RAM means that you could probably ditch the Windows 7 pagefile on the hard drive. I don't have a Windows 7 pagefile on my machine, and I do not miss. I don't think that the new battery slice that snaps at the bottom of the laptop will spread for the 220 x. Most probably the normal battery or one extended would be preferable. A docking station is pretty painless and works well for me. Still, I haven't that K 1 Blu - Ray recorder so.

  Have fun and don't forget of the availability of the online chat with sales or the number of phone sales as well.

• Several monitors, drag and drop questions

  Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. Running two monitors with extended desktop. With several windows open, I try to drag and drop items between windows, to move files or to copy text from one place to another, for example. After that selection is made, as soon as I move the mouse to drag, all windows size, shift to different areas of the desktop (s) to decrease and darkens slightly. The mouse arrow becomes a crossed circle.

  I tried using a non Aero theme without effect and am unsure if this is a windows problem, a problem of mouse or a monitor problem. I also made changes but advanced Visual effects, that does not work. In this screenshot, the Firefox window is full-screen on the right monitor, Thunderbird is full screen on the left and the other windows are different sizes on both. I am trying to drag and drop a few folders and that's what I have.

  Thanks for your help.

  

  I was able to troubleshoot and resolve this problem on mine. He was unrelated to monitors, etc.

  The unusual behavior occurred during left click drag and drop operations. Using a different mouse, I found normal operations. After some research, I found a dark environment on a Logitech mouse. Using setpoint, I disabled the application switcher function and monitor / several window performance and behavior returns to normal.

  Thanks for trying.

• several monitors, anchored app automatically change screen

  Hello

  I want to describe what looks like a bug - or undocumented - feature I have meet several times.

  I work with 2 monitors (left and right). I use to work mainly on the right monitor, with Mail and Skype on the left.
  I use the Win8 Skype App from the store, anchored on the screen left and Outlook 2010 full screen on the side - so that they share the screen.

  The question is if I activate other apps or passage to the modern user interface to open another application of the RIGHT of the screen (if I have another application to open getting on the upper left corner or activation of the user interface of the bot left corner), Skype is now anchored on the RIGHT screen automatically, forcing me to move back to the left and moved.

  No problem if I have this on the left screen or use the Start button to access the modern user interface. (Start button opens the modern UI on the monitor where the application is grounded - everywhere where I've anchor it)

  There's a config or a workaround or a current patch for it?
  I tend to make the mistake all the time that I'm looking for especially on the right screen. I don't want it to change everything I open the modern user interface to the left or to the right.

  Thank you

  Hi Nicolas,.

  The way he is now, it seems the app moves to some early screen screen is available on. It isn't a work around for this and it seems to work as it should because the app is part of the start screen.

  Hello. My computer is a HP Pavilion Desktop 550 - A17C with AMD Radeon R5 (integrated) graphics card. Can he take charge of two monitors? I did everything I can think of, including searching the Internet for a number of hours for solutions. For the life of me I can't get the computer to detect the second monitor, when I have two connected monitors.

  I connect the main monitor with a VGA cable and the second with a DVI cable. The computer only has a VGA connector and a DVI connector. There is no HDMI port (serioulsly and I bought this computer as three months previously, as a refurb...) (Lol).

  What I want to do, is extend the display. My hardware is unable to conduct two screens? A USB video adapter solve the problem?

• Qosmio X 500 - 13R: picture on external monitor with resolution 2560 x 1440 is blurred

  Hi all

  I have a computer laptop X 500 - 13R Toshiba Qosmio, although 2 years, still a great piece of hardware.

  I just bought a new monitor 27 "U2713HM which supports a resolution of 2560 x 1440.

  Computer video card notebook (GTX 460 m) supports a resolution higher than through a digital connection, so I used a HDMI cable to connect.

  Via Control Panel Nvidia, I could create a custom resolution, but the image is not clear / is blurred.
  It is readable, but it's just not everything.

  Tried with HDMI 1.4, without success.
  I volunteered to connect through Dual Link DVI cable, but the phone doesn't have a DVI connector, and I doubt the adapter will help.

  Anyone has a suggestion how to fix this problem?

  Thank you.

  I would like to share my experience using an external monitor with a HDMI cable.
  My monitor supports both HDMI and DVI port.
  First of all, I plugged my laptop on the external monitor using a HDMI cable to HDMI.
  But the fonts and the picture was not clear. I used the resolution 1920 x 1080

  Then I went to the DVI port. I plugged the laptop s HDMI port to monitor s port DVI (HDMI/DVI cable) and that solved my problem.

  I'm not quite sure the relevance of m this could be for you, but it worth the try

• Double connection monitor with HP H8 - 1360T

  Just got a new HP H8 - 1360T with a Radeon HD7570 video card. I have two monitors with DVI and VGA inputs on them. They were both used with an older Dell dual mode. Unfortunately the double with the Dell adapter cable has a male end LFH59 (all pins) that will not connect the HP H8 - 1360T.  Is it as simple as getting the right cable? I see some references/DVI-I single and double as well as DVI - D single and double. I want to extend my desktop on two monitors. Can what adapter cable I get? Thanks for your help.

  Hello

  You said that the monitors DVI so use a native DVI cable to a monitor, and then a DVI cable to HDMI to the other monitor.

  To eliminate any problems check each monitor, one at a time on each port to make sure everything works before moving on to the next step.

  Go to the AMD Catalyst Control Center and set up a display EyeFinity group.  You should be put in place a group of 2 X 1.

  If necessary, go to the AMD web siteand download the latest driver for your video card video card.

• 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. :)
