I have a Surface Pro 3 and a Microsoft docking station.  I have successfully connected two external monitors using Mini Display port to Mini Display port cable.   All three screen are visible and work great.

Here is the problem:  I have set all three screens to extend.  Screen 1 = Surface Pro Screen; Screen 2 = external monitor screen; Screen 3 = external monitor screen.   I have set Screen 2 has the primary screen, but Screen 1 remains the primary screen.  The only way Screen 2 becomes the main screen is to plug and unplug the screen from the docking station.  What am I missing?

I want my user to be able to use either two screens or all three screens, while connected to the docking station and having Screen 2 (external monitor) the main screen.

Currently, the only way I can get Screen 2 to be the main screen is to duplicate Screen 1 and Screen 2.

Any help is appreciated

Hi,

We are currently creating a conference room to be used for meetings.

We plan to have a large display installed on the wall, board room table in middle of the room and cables running from the display to the board room table.

We plan to have many cables coming to the board room table which can be used for people's laptops during meetings.

The table we have ordered has no slot for a connectivity box so we will be making a hole in the table to fit a connectivity box.

The ports needed for the connectivity box are:
- Cat 6
- Display port
- Power socket (Irish/ UK or universal socket)
- Audio in (for 3.5mm cable)
- HDMI port
- USB (Type A)
- Telephone port (RJ11)

What would you recommend as a very good conference table connectivity box to use with these cables?

Thanks,
Robbie

For some reason my home triple monitor setup isn't working correctly. The normal setup works fine but when I try to configure nvidia surround for gaming the middle montor, which is a different brand but the same size, has black bars on either side. I have never set up a PC to do this and was wondering what was going on.

I am running an i7 8700k, 32 GB mem, and a GTX 1080 ti so it should support it without issue.

My monitors are

From left to right.

Samsung 27in 1080p 60hz , Dell 27 in 1440p 144hz, and another samsung 27in 1080p.

The dell is the one with the issue.

Looking for a good external screen when on a road.  Any recommendations?
I used this one ASUS ZenScreen MB16AC 15.6-Inch Full HD IPS Monitor

Wonder if anyone knows anythings similar or better on a market?  Thanks.

Hi guys,

I have a few HP Elitebook (4k display) running windows 10, and a second screen using RDP to a Server 2012R2 RDS server.
My problem is, when I enable the PreferExternalManifest in the registry to fix DPI scaling it will no longer allow multiple screens to work.

I have tried using the program options (aka "Use all my monitors" in the display tab of MSTSC, as well as mstsc /span /v:server and mstsc /multimon /v:server

When i disable PreferExternalManifest it works with multiple monitors, but fails to render well.

Has anyone come across this and found a fix / workaround?

my mac crashed immediately after I plugged in 2 LG ultrafine display monitors today
i have LG monitors with usb-c connected to the mac

I have osx 10.13.6
Processor 2.9 GHz Intel Core i9
Memory 32 GB ram
Graphics Radeon Pro 560X 4096 MB
Intel UHD Grpahics 630 1536 MB

I need an inexpensive KVM that supports three (3) display ports.

I can't seem to find anything under $100 that supports the DisplayPort (dp v1.2 or 2) and does this all in one device.

Assistance is greatly appreciated.

This product works and I have it but it needs to support the third computer.  It only supports two.

Hello,

A coworker recently obtained a new docking station for her laptop and complained that her external monitor seemed "fuzzier" than it was.  Originally, we had her laptop connected via HDMI.  However, our IT support company connected the docking station with a VGA cable.

I theorized that the switch from HDMI to VGA was probably the cause of the video degradation.

When switching between the VGA of her docking station and "hardwiring" an HDMI directly from her laptop, she felt that the display did look better.  The difference seems barely perceptible, but I can imagine that staring at the screen for hours on end would make a difference.

When I looked at her new docking station, I noticed that there is no "HDMI out" port.  Rather there is a VGA, two DVI, and two DisplayPort (DP) out ports.  Her current monitor is only capable of connecting via VGA or HDMI cables.

Given this configuration, would you agree that connecting a DP-HDMI adapter to the docking station, and then an HDMI cable from adapter to the monitor is the BEST solution in this case?  Other than purchasing a different docking station of course.

It looks like I can purchase a DP-HDMI adapter for about $25.  So that's the way I'm leaning unless any of you experts believe there is a better solution.

Dear experts,

I currently connect my HP PAvillion X 360 to a TV display screen using HDMI card.

Can someone please tell me, what are my choices to connect ipad-pro wireless to the TV display screen.

Thank you

I have a particular area on my wall where I would like to mount a 70" big screen flat panel TV that needs to be extended (offset) around 3 feet from the wall (so that it won't obstruct a wall vent).

What are some good flat panel TV mounts that will allow this to be done?
