    SP3 waking in the night and freezing

    Thanks, GreyFox7! Reinstalling the wireless driver seems to have fixed the problem. I read somewhere that this wireless driver issue might be caused by having VPN software installed before the Windows 10 upgrade. Apparently one symptom of this is also that the Ethernet (wired) connection no...

    SP3 waking in the night and freezing

    I have the same problem. I usually work with my SP3 in the docking station and put it to sleep. The next morning it won't start up again, and worse still, the fan is running very loudly. I have to hold down the power button for a while (15 seconds or so) and then the fan stops. I wait a few more...

    I just want to use my monitor

    My Dell U2414H monitor arrived about a week ago and it works just fine using mDP from the dock. The Dell is surprisingly well-equipped with USB ports and provides a USB connector cable as well, so it could even function as a docking station (though no charging). The one downside is what so many...

    I just want to use my monitor

    I'm not aware of any official list, but the monitors need to have a DisplayPort out socket so that they can pass on the signal to the next monitor. The last one in the chain doesn't need it and the DisplayPort must be at least level 1.2. The monitors don't have to have the same resolution...

    I just want to use my monitor

    I've ordered a mini-DP to DVI adapter, but it'll probably take a while to arrive. My really long-term plan is to run two Dell U2414H monitors daisychained. But in the interim, I'll use the Dell (when it arrives) and - assuming no problems with the mini-DP to DVI adapter (when that arrives) - my...

    I just want to use my monitor

    Surfdock, thanks for those links, which were very informative. I suspect the problem is HDMI and underscan/overscan as you said. The monitor works fine with another PC and DVI, so I shouldn't have tempted fate by buying a mini-DP to HDMI adapter; I should have gone with a mini-DP to HDMI...

    I just want to use my monitor

    Thanks for taking the time to reply. Your method was one of the first I tried. My monitor is I think 23 inch. Unfortunately I still ended up with the same problem. I'll take another look in case I missed a step. But again, are all these people using monitors downloading Intel drivers and...

    I just want to use my monitor

    I bought an SP3 about a week ago, at least in part because I wanted to use it to replace my desktop. I currently have a Samsung 1920 x 1080 monitor, which works fine over DVI with my desktop. So I thought I could simply hook up the monitor to the SP3 (via the docking station), and use it at its...
