We've got 10 Microsoft Surface Pros; with some of those, we want to use external monitors. We've attempted to do this with a couple of the units using a MS Surface Docking Station and a display adapter. No matter whether we plug directly into a monitor's HDMI port with a standard cable or the DVI using an HDMI-to-DVI cable, it doesn't work. When we set the external monitor to the input we used, the Surface flickers black for a second as though it recognizes the monitor, but the Windows desktop immediately comes back. Nothing ever shows up on the external monitor.
Would love some help with this one.
