I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the E-View stand and/or port replicator.
I use my E6500 with an external monitor in an extended desktop and would like a hot dock/undockable setup, and the stand and replicator sound like they would work well for this purpose.
Thinking about getting one to go with my m4500 which is on order. Reviews seem ok though some complain it's bulky and other complained the release mechanism wasn't great. Worst was that someone said their comp wouldn't boot when docked.
Can anyone share experience and/or high res pics of what one looks like?
Is there any port replicator from dell available for dell xps 16. If not does anybody knows about any other thrid party port replicator which is compatible with Dell XPS 16 ...
View 4 Replies View RelatedThere are apparently 2 models of the E Port Plus Replicators; model YP021 and model YP126. Does anybody know what the difference between the 2 are besides the prices (the YP126 is much more expensive)? Are they both compatible with all E Series Latitudes?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI just purchased an E-6500 and am considering buying a port replicator that i can use to hook up my external hard drive, monitor, keyboard, mouse, and printer.
I am looking for the cheapest replicator that takes up the least amount of space since space is limited right now. I have a few questions:
1) I can't figure out from Dell's website which port replicator meets my needs. Can anyone point me to the right model that is the best bang for my buck,
meeting basic needs mentioned above (a generic option is fine too--doesn't have to be Dell as long as it works)
Can I get by using a 90w power adapter with the port replicator or do I need the 130w one?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently got a dell M4400 and large external dell monitor. I purchased the e-port replicator. I should be able to dock my laptop and use an external monitor and keyboard/mouse.
I can do that, but when I shut my laptop, the whole thing shuts down. Is this correct? I know I've used docking stations in the past and didn't have to have the laptop open. If I do, what is the point of the docking station?
The E-Port replicator had pretty much no documentation. Also, when I dock my laptop, shouldn't it see the docking station?
I have a Dell M4400 with nVidia 770 and I also have a Dell 3007WFP which supports 2560x1600 native resolution. Does anyone know if the M4400 will support this resolution if I dock it to an E-Port Replicator and use the DVI output of the docking station to the 3007WFP? When I looked at the Dell manual for the E-Port Replicator (and also the Plus) it didn't say if the DVI output supports dual-link.
View 10 Replies View RelatedIm 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
At work I use M4400 that is docked to E-Port Plus replicator. If I start the laptop while docked, everything works great.
When I undock the laptop (while still running) everything is still fine. Although sometimes the laptop lid need to be opened and closed twice for the display output to show up on the laptop screen.
The real problem occurs when I redock the laptop (while still running) to the E-Port Plus replicator. Most of the time, the display output does not transfer to my external monitor (22" Dell monitor). The laptop appears to be locked up, and I need to reboot the computer
I receive there is 1 weeks ago a M6800 laptop with his port replicator. When the laptop is plugged to the port replicator and I press the power button (on the laptop or on the port replicator) the laptop starts but it is frozen immediatly and the big "DELL" logo is displayed. I do not see Windows starts screen and I can not enter in the BIOS.
If I unplugged the laptop from the replicator station, it starts immediately and it is work.
If I plug the power charge on the laptop it starts immediately and it is work.
I plug the laptop to the port replicator, I starts it, the starts process is frozen of course at the "DELL" logo. After that I unplugged the laptop (I do not shutdown it, so the laptop is still on), the laptop continue to starts until Windows. After that I plug the laptop to the port replicator and it is work...
So I think the problem come with the port replicator detection at the BIOS level...
I am thinking on purchasing a SP2309W for my M4400 but i don't know if it will fit the E-Port Replicator Plus with the E-Monitor Flat Panel Stand
what I would like to know is if anyone knows if it fits the stand (the monitor is VESA compatible?) and if the 4400 will support the max resolution of the monitor (2048 x 1152) and if I need special cables for this.
Wondering if they came up with anything new for these fan issues or if there are even drivers for a replicator...

View 3 Replies View RelatedOne of my users brought me this issue the other day. He is using a Latitude D830 laptop with a D/port docking station. With or without the laptop docked, The power button on the docking station flashes Orange and Green when powered. I've swapped power bricks for the dock. The laptop still seems to charge while being docked. After swapping the dock, the new dock is fine.
What might be causing it? Is the dock dead? Could it be a failed port on the docking station?
I tried last night and early this morning to view the inventory on Dell's Small Biz website but I kept receiving an error message.
Has anyone else tried to check out the inventory on any of Dell's outlet sites last night or this morning and like myself couldn't get through?
I have XPS 1530 (red). I had made some changes to NVidia settings (video settings) and was able to view the movies full screen.
But after some days its not working. I checked the changes i made; its still the same, but movies are not viewed full screen.
I will be more then likely using a 2407wfp Monitor so I was wondering which stand should I use:

I assume it's impossible to view the other partition tho.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI bought a refurb E4300 about a month ago. I really like the design and really want to keep this laptop, but I've come across some random issues, I've never dealt with before and it's getting to annoy me.
The most recent one is when the computer sits for about 10 min (the setting is set to 10 min) and goes to standby.
The blue microsoft screen comes up and the words "Preparing to stand by" shows up and it freezes.
I can still move the mouse (I notice the pointer moving), the keyboard still works (toggle lighted keyboard), but the screen stays as is. The only way I've solved this is to do a hard reboot. Painful.
My other issue was from the other day. I didn't want to disturb anyone so I plugged in my headphones.
After that, I couldn't control the volume. None of the volume controls worked at all. In face, only one source of audio was coming up.
I just bought a Dell port replicator dock used one - model PRX01X
I'm having problem with mouse connected to this dock using USB. Previously mouse was connected to laptop, now is connected to replicator dock.
I'm feeling that mouse is not working properly, my move is not smooth like before. It caused by replicator dock
Is there any patch/software fixing that issue?
PS: I'm using 90W power adapter.
I have a T430 with Windows 8.1. What is the best way to view my photos in a slide show? There is no "Media Show".
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a HP Pavilion Entertainment PC tx1218au working on Windows Vista Home Premium and AMD processor and NVIDIA graphics. I have installed the latest updates for my laptop. The problem that I am currently facing started more than a year back and is still in continuity. I have uploaded photos on my laptop and on initial stages I was able to view and edit them with ease. Later on I was unable to view the photos. Even when I load any new photos from my camera I am not able to view them. The photos donot seem to be corrupt. I have tried attaching these photos to my email and opening the same on my desktop and viewing them from my desktop.
I have this desktop which runs on Windows XP and Intel Processor. Whenever I try to open any of my photos with any of the software programs other than Quicktime, the laptop immediately stops working and it does some memory dumping and then my laptop starts again. When I open these photos with Quicktime, it gives me a message that my image is corrupt and it cannot open this file. Most of the photos appear as corrupt on Quicktime except for a select few which opens but in such a way that the photo is painted in color blue or showing some shadowy images. Because of this above problem I am not able to work with my photos on my laptop.
After wake up from stand by mode my system brightness is always set 100%.
Adjustment '-' or '+' brightness in 1 degree returns it to bios values.
Anyone have similar problem?

At work we ordered a Dell Precision M4400 laptop
Processor: T9300 or T9500
RAM: 4GB
OS: vista Basic
When the laptop arrived I took out the 80GB HDD and installed a Western Digital 320GB 7200 RPM drive and created 2 Partitions so that we could dual-boot with Windows XP SP3 and another Windows XP SP3.
Is there a way to find out what laptop I actually have, a 7535 OR a 7535G.
What does the G stand for? Does it make a much of a difference in drivers if I got them mixed up?
I've got an ongoing problem when I resume from "Stand By" with my i9300. It's been an issue since I first purchased my machine,
it's consistently repeatable, and occurs regardless of which drivers I use or which combination video card / BIOS I run or whether I'm running XP or Linux.
The issue is as follows: if I close my lid or activate the "Stand By" button either through the start menu/ "Turn Off Computer" dialogue or via the keyboard; the machine will only properly resume when plugged-in.
I've read on here that the G stands for dedicated graphics. However my 7720 has a dedicated graphics card and does not have the G designation. I've never seen any explanation of what the Z stands for. So does anyone know for sure what they mean?

When the notebook goes into standby or hybernation mode, upon awaking, the screen becomes unreadable. The screen looks like a fractal image, swirling spirals and squares of colors.
When the box comes up that says 'This computer is locked' you can't type in the username or password lines and I have to push the power button and restart the notebook everytime after stand by or hybernation mode is used
