T430 with older port replicator

Hello.  New to the forum.  About to get my first ThinkPad, a Monday T430

I come from an older office.  I'm interested in continuing to use the keyboard, mouse, speakers and monitor of this configuration (USB and VGA, nothing complicated) with a sort of host/port replicator docking.  Some of the docks are super expensive (for me, anyway).  I was wondering if anyone has experience with T250410U with a T430 port replicator.  I am not too concerned about the lack of USB 3.0.

If it does not, it will be possible to have an "extended desktop" if I have the laptop open docked and the external VGA screen attached to the Port Replicator?  Or I would get only released in one of the two?

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forums. Unfortunately the 2504 dock will not work because the T430 uses a different physical connector on the bottom of the case.

  • Problems with the port replicator USB 2.0 after installing Windows XP - SP2

    Hello world

    I have a Satellite M30 742 with MS-Windows XP Professional installed. I plugged most of my external devices to him through a port replicator Toshiba USB 2.0. Everything seems to work fine until I installed Service Pack 2.

    Therefore, starting my laptop computer is an adventure to recognize random port replicator: usually four USB ports are recognized, but the ports series and parallel, keyboard and mouse ports are ignored, with a message "unknown USB device".

    Uninstalling and reinstalling, them or their drivers are a vain effort, since Windows keep ignoring them.

    However, in other occasions, they are recognized without problems (even if windows insist on installing their drivers each time that it finds, even if I have already installed a large number of times).

    Please, you have an idea to solve this problem * boring * problem?

    Thank you very much in advance,
    Ricardo.

    Hello

    what you might try is to reinstall the chipset driver because I think that the USB is connected to the chipset.

    In my opinion the Windows upgrade had changed the pilot USB from Toshiba a MS a. So the Port Replicator is not recognized all the time.

  • Portege R500: external monitor does not work with the Port Replicator Port 2 and DVI

    I have a Portege R500 running Vista with a slim Port Replicator II and digital monitor Viewsonic.
    I connected the monitor to the DVI port on the port replicator and got it to work OK.
    Press fn + F5 would switch between the computer screen and the external monitor.

    Then it stopped working, and I can't make it work at all. F5 recognizes just the laptop screen.

    If I connect an analog display, it is fine, and I can pass between the two screens without difficulty.

    The strangest thing is that, if I reboot when the Portege R500 is docked, the digital monitor begins by displaying the boot sequence, but then the signal is lost as soon as the screen stops the display of the progress (in low resolution) bar.

    I spent an hour on the phone to support Friday, and he made me nowhere.
    They finished by saying that he should never have worked! So what is the DVI port because then?

    Any ideas?

    David

    Connect your monitor directly to your laptop and see if it is recognized and you can go through FN + F5 between the two views.
    If it works, then connect with port replicator, and then try again.

    It's probably best if you reinstall display drivers. Maybe there are new too on the download page.

  • What is the resolution of the max screen with speed Port Replicator Hi (PA3838E-1PRP)

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Portege R700 - 11 p and I want to buy a duplicator of Port speed Hi (PA3838E-1PRP), but I want to know the maximum screen resolution with ang VGA HDMI on the port replicator.

    Thanks in advance for your answer

    Hello

    The maximum display resolution depends on the laptop (graphics card) and the external display that is connected to the port replicator to Port Hi-Speed.

    The internal graphics INTEL QM57 (incorporated into the Portégé R700) overview card provides this info:
    http://www.Intel.com/products/Notebook/chipsets/QM57/QM57-overview.htm
    + This chipset supports the DisplayPort interface * with a resolution up to 2560 x 1600. +

    Therefore, check the properties of the external monitor.

  • latitude dell max resolution with e-port replicator

    I have the following scenario:

    • Laptop: Dell Latitude E6420 i7 with Intel HD Graphics 3000
    • Monitor: Dell 3007WFP 30' (up to 2560 x 1600 resolution)
    • Docking station: e-port replicator for Dell T308d
    • Adapter: Dell Display Port to DVI - D adapter cable DP/N 023NVR

    Problem: the screen 30 '' Maximum available resolution is 1280 x 800.

    Question:

    Say that I can't get the monitor resolution of 2560 x 1600 with the integrated Intel HD3000 card or the e-port replicator as the laptop has no native DVI - D Dual Link, I should be able to get at least 1920 x 1080 per display port. No difficulty to get the best resolution of 1280 x 800?

    Among the measures taken so far:

    1. The monitor has only a DVI - D Dual Link port so I use a DVI - D Dual link to cable DVI - D Dual Link to connect to the docking station does not work, I read somewhere that the e-port replicator is actually DVI - D Single Link inside so won't work because the monitor needs native DVI - D Dual Link.
    2. Using the same DVI - D Dual Link connection cable double DVI - D, but this time I add a DVI - D Dual link adapter port screen and connect to the port of display in the e-port replicator port, always the same question.
    3. To connect directly to the laptop using DVI - D Dual Link to HDMI Cable, always the same.
    4. Also tried manually add resolutions custom in the Intel like 1920 x 1800 Graphics Control Panel, or by using p 50 Hz frequency refresh, 30 Hz, etc. timing standard CVT or FTE or CVT - RB. When I apply these custom settings, the monitor screen goes black as if it does not support so it changes again in 1280 x 800.
    5. All the drivers are up to date.

    Help will be greatly appreciated! -

    You will need an active displayport to DVI. Here is the link to the purchase page.

  • audio off when it is associated with the port replicator

    I use Windows XP with my Thinkpad T400 and I bought a Lenovo port replicator model k33415 with my computer.  I have a keyboard and a mouse attached to the Port Replicator port as a PDA sometimes.

    Whenever the port replicator is connected to the computer, the computer speakers do not work and I hear no audio.   When I restart the computer without the attached port replicator, the computer speakers are working fine.      I've tried everything!    Any ideas?

    Hello!  In fact, I fixed it on my own.   Under sound properties I adjusted the audio settings for 'Conexant HD', he made my default device, and under AUdio and then "Advanced", I needed to set speakers to computer speakers.  What I haven't done yet we see if this turns off audio when I unplug the duplicator... so I guess I need to change the default device.   You may not have the same problem, but in any case, good luck!

  • Problems with an external monitor with the Port Replicator III and M100

    Hey all.

    I just returned from a trip where I took my laptop. Plugged into the Port Replicator port, started and everything was fine. Then after an hour or two, the monitor stopped receiving a signal. I repositioned the laptop and everything was good again. He then loses signal once again, and I was not able to get a signal via the port replicator since.

    The monitor works fine through the hole at the rear of the M100.

    I checked the pins on the Port Replicator port and portable, none folded and tried to clean any dust etc. Still no signal to the monitor.

    Someone has ideas of how to do to solve this problem?

  • Port Replicator III + very high CPU when you move the usb mouse only in W2k

    Tecra M2 with a port replicator III +.

    It is set to dual boot XP and Windows 2000 (yes I know it is well a bit but I have a bunch of stuff installed in win2k it is difficult to find these days).

    XP is very good at 100%, but with win 2000 if I use my * USB mouse * on the * ports port replicator and waggle the mouse around - the * CPU * jumps from 0 to * 70 + % * use (System process that seems indicatates like IRQ problem). If I plug the mouse into the ports of the laptop (when the laptop is connected) - it's fine, no more than 5% cpu usage. It's a microsoft basic mouse. I really believe that this is a problem of usb any, because the cpu jumps a little if I type quickly on my usb keyboard (only a few %). It comes with the usb ports on all the Replicator.

    Any ideas? I don't really want to plug my mouse in the morning because it beats a little interest to have a docking station in the first place! I have installed mobile extensions. All other aspects of the replicator are fine

    Martin

    Huh it will not be easy to find the right explanation for this.
    At the moment when Tecra M2 has been offered on the market as Replicator port compatible Toshiba offered Toshiba Advanced Port Replicator III (no +) and at that time both supported in operating system has been tested with it.

    Toshiba later designed Toshiba Advanced Port Replicator III + and confirmed the compatibility with Tecra M2, but obviously with more recent WXP (at this time).
    So now, you've been following situation: you use most recent Replicator port, but with much older operating system so I assume that there may be a compatibility issue with W2K.

    I can't imagine use you so often with W2K and if so, may not be so problematic to connect the mouse directly on the cell s USB port.

    Sorry, but I don't think that there is nothing you can do about it.

  • Portege R500 - configure the parser on the Port Replicator

    The system is Portege R500 with a port replicator Port MS Vista running. Port replicator has a Philips 19 "LCD monitor

    System has BEEN configured so that when the system was in the duplicator monitor 19 "inches would be active and system monitor is inactive.

    But, a few days before the following events occur, when the system is in the port replicator and its turned on screen (the one with the mobile progress indicator) Windows startup is displayed on the Port Replicator monitor, then the screen turns white and displays them on the screen on the monitor system, after entering the desktop on the monitor system.

    I live in a remote area, so I can't pop in the store of the local computer to ask for help.

    I would appreciate someone to give me some guidance as to where it configures the port replicator monitor configuration. I looked at the section Configuration screen Control Panel but it seems to be the performance of two monitors, it appears not to address the peculiarities of a laptop computer with a port replicator configuration

  • Tecra A11 Port Replicator - do not enable external HARD disk when securing

    Hello

    Had a problem with the Port Replicator port for my new Tecra - A11.

    When I anchor the laptop in the Replicator, that is not automatically connecting external 700gig USB backup HDD, I have either pull the USB cable on the Replicator, or disable the drive HARD and again so he can be seen and recognized.

    I never had this problem with my A8 and its replicator, I could just dock and everything was fine.

    I am running Win7

    Thank you... PK

    Hello

    Seems that Win 7 is unable to recognize the external HARD drive that is already connected to the port replicator.
    I m not very good if you had to install a software for this external HARD drive, but if software is required, and then try to reinstall again.

  • Use of Tecra M11 on Express Port Replicator II

    Hello all, I wonder if the Group of experts can help with a small problem Im having with my Ministry of the Interior

    My kit is a Toshiba Tecra M11 with Win 7 Enterprise, that I use with a port replicator Port Express and I just upgraded to a Lifebook Seimens, also with a cradle of home. The way I like to work is to use the laptop to connect Central company on the internet by VPN network and then use my PC at home to connect to the laptop via DRC - if I can use the screen Monitor wide and large keyboard (my job is very large Excel spreadsheets). It worked well with the Siemens and especially work with Toshiba, but for a small problem.

    After I have logged on to the network and connected to the laptop, I want to put the lid down, then put the laptop and its cradle of home from the road on a shelf. This has worked with Siemens, but whenever I have try with the Toshiba it puts the machine to sleep as soon as the cover closes and the DRC on the main PC session is suspended. The Toshiba is mounted on its cradle of home throughout this process. Computer laptop & cradle to host both the main pc are all connected by a wired connection to the same router netgear

    How to stop what is happening, that is how to use the device on its base of home with the lid down?

    In the Windows power plan settings, you can choose the action to COVER closed. The default setting will stay and that is what you have described. So I recommend disabling this option for each Windows power profile.

    Otherwise, follow the instructions posted by Akuma. If you make an update of the BIOS, unplug all devices and close all running programs before doing this.

  • Tecra R850 - Port Replicator problem - no lan at startup

    Hey guys I have a strange bug with a laptop computer Toshiba Tecra R850 customers with the port replicator. He is 8 months old.

    Almost every morning when the client connects to the laptop computer to the Port Replicator port and power and the Windows 7 Desktop on startup it does not create a "LAN" connection (external monitor & USB works well through the Port Replicator).

    I have to get the customer to power the laptop off, disconnect the port replicator, disconnect the electric power from the port replicator and then plug everything back in and re - turn on the laptop.

    Here's what I've ruled out so far:
    Port replicator: Replicator port, I've replaced with another unit of users (exact same model), same problem.
    Directly connected LAN: if I connect the LAN directly (i.e. remove the duplicator) I have no problem with the LAN/Internet connection.

    Here is the part number of the laptop and the dock:
    Tecra R850: PT520A-01N003
    Port Replicator II: PA3916A-1PRP

    Any ideas? Could this be a faulty stowage on the phone port?

    Kind regards
    Aaron

    Hello

    Don t think its faulty docking port because in this case other ports Port Replicator would not work

    I think its problem of system have you tested with costs recovered system port replicator?
    Would certainly be worth a try
