Dell :: E Series Dock And Display Port

May 28, 2010

Anyone else experience issues with the display port on the e series dock?

I've got a E6400, E4300 and E4200 that I'm using with a E Port replicator.

I'm connecting it to a dell ultrasharp U2410 monitor via display port.

Several times a day, the monitor will go blank and say there is no signal, then 10 seconds later turn back on.

Several more times a day the monitor will go into standby and say there is no signal, the only way to get it back on is to open up the laptop and press FN F8 several times to switch the outputs, and sometimes that will work, other times it won't. in that case I have to either reboot the computer, or go into the intel graphics settings, tell it to use single monitor, and use the dell digital u2410.

I've called dell support, they are useless. I've updated the video drivers, I've reloaded the computer, I've tried 3 computers (but on the same dock since I only have one docking station).

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: Max Resolution - X230 With Dock Dual Display Port

Oct 5, 2014

I have a X230 (model 2357G) with a type 4338 dock. I'm currently running dual 1920x108 monitors via the dual DVI ports in the dock. But I wonder if the dual Displayports in the dock can handle something with a higher resolution like dual 3840x2160 monitors ?

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: X1 Carbon 2 / OneLink Dock - Unable To Use Ethernet Port

Feb 25, 2014

I have an issue with the OneLink dock and the ethernet port. Initially it was working but after a BIOS update it now always gives me "Unknowns USB device".
 
I just got my hands on a  i7 X1 Carbon 2 and a OneLink Pro dock and at first it all worked out as it should.
After a while the "System update" prompted me that there were updates I let it run, including an updateof BIOS from 1.06 to 1.07. Now I can no longer get it to work.
 
Whenever i plug it in i know get: Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

The SuperSpeed link to the USB device keeps going to an error state Compliance. If the device is removable, remove the device and then disable/enable from device manager to recover.
 
I even did a full system restore and started from the beginning...

Lenovo X240 Series ThinkPad :: Audio Port On Ultra Dock Docking Station Not Working

Feb 19, 2013

I have a ThinkPad X240 laptop with Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64 installed. Sound plays just fine from the laptop's speakers, and when I plug external speakers into the laptop's 3.5mm audio port they work just fine too. when the laptop is docked in my Ultra Dock 90W docking station and the external speakers cable is plugged into the dock's audio port, no sound is heard. If I'm playing music through the laptop's speakers, as soon as I plug a cable into the dock's audio port no sound is heard. I can still use the laptop's audio port to connect external speakers, but that defeats the object of having an audio port on the Ultra Dock.

The Ultra Dock has (I believe) the latest firmware installed (version 2.22.000) and I have the latest audio drivers installed: in Device Manager > Sound, video and game controllers > Realtek High Definition Audio > Driver version is 6.0.1.7188 which is the latest available from Lenovo Support downloads. What do I need to do to get the Ultra Dock's audio port working? I mistakenly posted this message on the "X Series tablet ThinkPad Laptops" board.

Dell :: Latitude With Dock/Port Replicator Feedback

Feb 15, 2009

Im starting a thread b/c many people seem to be experiencing some issues with their Latitude while docked.

Some of my problems (keep in mind I use TWO external displays):

1) Most prevalent is my fan issue. This might only apply to nVidia GPU users. It appears that two things are happening: a) the dock simply does not allow for proper heat dissipation.

This for me is a fact as my laptop runs both cooler and, utlizes much lower fan speeds while undocked. b) DELL may have set the fans to kick in at lower temps particularly with the nvidia gpu

Lenovo ThinkPad W Series :: W520 - No Sound With ASUS PA248 Monitor Connected Via Display Port

Nov 7, 2013

When I connect my external monitor (ASUS PA248) to my W520, the audio disappears.  When I disconnect it, the audio returns.  This seems a bizarre link between audio and video, but there it is.  Note that the PA248 does NOT have built-in speakers.

Dell :: Windows 7/Vista D/Dock Audio Not Working On Dock But Is On Laptop

May 2, 2009

It seems that since I updated to Vista and to Window 7 subsequently I can't get the audio to work out of my dock. It works fine out of the side of my laptop.

Any ideas on this? I wouldn't think it is a driver issue as sound does work.

Dell :: UPDATE: Latitude E Series + Dock Fan - Identified

Dec 11, 2008

So ive been having fan issues with e6400+E/Dock for months now.
I have the dock with a 19' monitor on top and, a 17 incher attached to the left.

For some reason, after about an hour of use or when using a multitude of programs at once, my fan would kick into high gear and proceed to drive me nuts for hours. When looking up my temps, I noticed that the fan kicked in when my NVIDIA Quadro went above 61/62 degrees (occasionally going as high as 71).

Granted, I probably should have done this simple test months ago, but I finally decided to you use my setup W/O the 17 inch monitor and completely disconnected it from my dock.
Low and behold: no fan issues.
Temps remain in the mid-50's and fan stays at a low, quiet speed.

It appears that the extra work needed to drive the additional monitor is pushing the temps up and kicking in the fan.

So I have two questions as a result:

1) Didn't DELL test this dock before marketing/advertising it to be able to handle multiple monitors (without the aid of a very noisy and distracting fan)?

2) Am I supposed to just live with this now or, is it safe to try and over-ride DELLS factory settings to get the fan to remain at a low setting (how high is 66-70 degrees for the Quadro anyways)?

Multiple monitors are critical to my business and I honestly would not have dropped 2gs+ for this system had I known the fan would be this noisy and distracting.

Lenovo E540 11e E/Edge :: OneLink Pro Dock - External Display Maximum Resolution Is 1280x1024

Jan 4, 2015

I have recently bought ThinkPad E540 with OneLink Pro Dock, in which I have connected my LG Flatron IPS236 external display. LG's max resolution is Full HD 1920x1080, but for some reason my external display's max resolution is only 1280x1024. The display is attached to the OneLink Pro Dock's DVI port. I have both updated the graphic card's drivers and LG monitor's drivers and booted the system. I have also tried using both 75 hertz and 60 hertz refresh rates.

Jan 8, 2009

I just ordered an M4400 from the outlet, and in the Accessories page during the order there was no option to buy a DisplayPort to XXX Adapter for $15 like there is when you are buying a new one...

I figured it wouldn't be a big deal to find one after the fact, but now that I'm looking the only DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter Dell has to order is $59.99 !! Any ideas one where to get one closer to $15?

Lenovo ThinkPad W Series :: W540 Dock Compatibility?

Oct 7, 2009

We have three dock posibilities:

- basic dock
 
- pro dock
 
- ultra dock
 
They differentiate by the number of ports and by the power adapter supplied with them. I had an opurtunity to try my W540 on pro dock, which normally has 65W or 90W power adapter. The computer warned me about insufficient power, and did not charge on dock, everything else worked fine. The I disconnected 90W and connected my original 170W power supply to the doc. Everything is working normally since.
 
So, my question is: Since I don't need all the ports on the ultra dock, nor on the pro dock. Would basic dock work with W540 and 170W power adapter too?

Dell :: E6400 And E-Port Plus Dual External Display

Jul 21, 2009

I've got a co-worker that just got an E6400 and E-Port Plus docking station with 130W power supply.

The machine is running 32-bit Windows XP with an nVidia Quadro NVS 160m and she has two Dell 2001FP monitors connected to the DVI ports on the docking station.

I can't seem to get dual displays on the external monitors. With the laptop closed and docked, the machine only recognizes one of the monitors that is plugged in to the dock.

Dell :: Audio Over Display Port, But Bnot Laptop Speakers!?

Mar 16, 2009

When I plug my M4400 into my TV via DisplayPort->HMDI, the video and audio play fine on the tv.. However the video and audio also continue to play on the laptop. The video is no big deal-

I can lower the lid, or point it in a different direction. But the doubling of the audio through the laptop speakers is a serious pain .....

So I've just got a e6400 for e-port plus.

Is it possible to have two external monitors AND the laptop display all running at the same time? If so how?

Even better would be this: I have two external monitors - both vga with no DVI (oh well). Can I get this working?

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: X1 Carbon (2014) And OneLink Pro Dock Setup

Jun 25, 2014

I have a X1 Carbon and a OneLink Pro dock. I have it setup with evey thing working, no issue's whatsoever. My concern is that when the laptop is completly charged while connected to the dock, is there any way to switch to battery while staying connected to the dock to be able to use the extrnal monitor, ethernet, and usb ports etc?
 
What i have noticed is that even when the battery is 100% charged , the dock keeps charging as the battery doesnt fall below 100% and in long term it will reduce the battery life.

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: X1 Carbon And Onelink Pro Dock Constantly Crashing

Oct 8, 2014

We have one setup with 2 Dell 24" Ultrasharp monitors (U2412M) using the display port and DVI port.  The fact that I couldn't get native resolution of the screens when having dual monitors is strike one but I understand.  If you only have 1 of them i would get native resolutions with the display port.
 
Anyways I had problems with the machine crashing and always when docked.  I made sure the dock had the latest firmware and that the driver was also updated.  It crashed so much that eventually the hard drive got corrupted.  It kept showing NTFS errors so Lenovo replaced the drive for me.  I was really crossing my fingers hoping the drive was bad in the first place thus all my problems.
 
Nope it still crashes! The client just can't use laptop with the onelink pro dock. I already have the latest drivers too.

Lenovo X1 Carbon X Series ThinkPad :: Dock Shorten Battery Life?

Mar 20, 2014

Since I'm using LAN internet, My X1 Carbon is always connected to ThinkPad Dock at home use. In addition to connect the internet, the Dock is always charging my battery. AFAIK, the battery life will be shorten if it's always charged/plugged. Its better to work on battery after 100% charged and return to charge if asked to.

I just worried, is connecting to ThinkPad Dock after 100% fully charged can shorten X1 Battery Life?

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: X1 Carbon With Dock - External Monitor Not Working

Jul 27, 2013

I use the Displaylink dock to connect to an external monitor, but it has suddenly stopped working.  The error message said "check connections".  I have done so - replaced the digital video cable between dock and monitor with a new one, cycled both dock and monitor on and off several times, but windows can not find an external display.

The Lenovo settings app has been giving me an "updating... " message for 3 days (I have raised a query on that elsewhere) so I can't use that to check out the display problem.  I should say the display problem started today, and the "updating.."

Intel Chipset drivers are updated.
