What resolutions are you using?

Hi Tom <br />
<br />
Thank you for your response i have two monitors with two display port connectors connecting them both from each monitor.<br />
However i'm still getting duplicate screens.<br />
<br />
Thank you
</div>


<div>
1) Does your graphics card support dual display? (I bet this is yes)<br />
2) Have you tried connecting directly to your laptop and seeing what happens?<br />
3) I assume your laptop supports DisplayPort 1.2?<br />
4) What resolution is on the first monitor?<br />
5) Did you check to see if all of the needed drivers work on Windows 7?

Hi Ramin its windows 7 enterprise
</div>


<div>
Make sure to Enable &quot;<b>MST</b>&quot; and <b>DP 1.2</b> in Both monitor settings.
</div>


<div>
I would contact Dell. There is a shot that they did not implement something correctly as far as the dock goes.<br />
<br />
If the dock also has a full sized DP port, I would try that instead of the mini.

<div>
Hi Rock,<br />
<br />
The dock hasn't got a full display port.<br />
<br />
Thank you

<b>With this configuration it must work.<br />
</b><br />
From Dell dock Mini-DisplayPort out --&gt; mDP to DP cable --&gt; to #1 monitor DP in (MST/DisplayPort 1.2 <b>Enabled</b>)<br />
<br />
from #1 monitor DP out --&gt; DP to DP cable --&gt; #2 monitor DP in (MST/DisplayPort 1.2 <b>Disabled</b>)
</div>


<div>
As I said, If computer has only one DP then it's not possible to get Extended desktop on both monitors. User have connected One monitor to computer then second monitor to first monitor as a chain. This configuration can give him only duplicated screen. No more other questions from author.

Windows OS

A monitor or a display is an electronic visual display for computers, usually comprised of the display device, circuitry, casing, and power supply. The display device in modern monitors is typically a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) thin panel, while older monitors used a cathode ray tube (CRT) about as deep as the screen size. They are connected to the computer via VGA, DVI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, LVDS or other proprietary connectors and signals.

Windows 7

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
