Can X301 support multiple external monitors?

Hi,
I'm looking at buying a X301, but I'd like the ability to drive 2 external monitors at 1600x1200 (the native resolution of those devices).  Does anyone know if the X301 can do that?  If I need a specific external dock to do that, can someone point me towards that dock?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
-Jeff

the X301 have a display port and vga output supported natively on the actual machine, which can support one external monitor, you can then get Lenovo usb enhanced port replicator, which has another vga output, using that you can output two external monitor....
haven't tried it, since i don't have a X301, but theoretically it should work, maybe someone can confirm this for you, as the last thing you want is to purchase a machine and it turns out that it won't work in the way you hoped it can.

    Hello doelfke1,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    According to the technical specifications of your computer, it can support up to two external displays.

  • Can I attach multiple external monitors to my Pavillion dv7 laptop?

    I have one monitor connected through the HDMI interface and I would like to have another one attached as well. Can I use the VGA port (or the other flat one -- I do not kjnow what it is called) and have the monitors work in concert?
    Thanks!

    Hi, Jerry:
    Theoretically you should be able to connect as many monitors as you have video out ports.
    Since I don't have your model, I can only speculate.
    I know that this is true of desktop PC's (where the onboard video is not disabled by an add on card).
    I believe the other HDMI-looking port is a display port.

  • Can T43 drive 2 *external* monitors?

    Hi folks -- this is my first posting and I didn't see this exact question asked before so I thought I'd try the experts! I have an IBM ThinkPad T43, model 1871-4CU, with Mobile Intel 915GM/GMS, 910GML Express Chipset Family (according to the Device Manager). I also have a docking station P/N 74P6734. I'm trying to run two external monitors instead of using the laptop's display and a single external monitor, but my system doesn't seem to support this. I can certainly run the display and a single external monitor (off the VGA port on the dock) with no problem, but when if I close the laptop and try to run two external monitors, the Display Settings control panel doesn't seem to recognize the second monitor (run off the DVI port on the dock). The Intel GMA Driver for Mobile control panel also doesn't recognize that a second monitor is attached. I know the second monitor and the DVI cable are fine because if I remove the VGA monitor the DVI one works just fine. My hunch is that since the laptop itself only has a VGA port on it and no DVI, that by design it can only support one external monitor at a time and not two. I was hoping, though, that since the dock has both ports that I'd be able to to drive two external monitors (again, just two external monitors, not those two plus the laptop's display for a total of three). Am I correct in thinking I can't get around this or maybe there's something I'm overlooking -- like a driver update -- that would allow me to drive two external monitors? Thanks in advance for your help here!

    The reason your T41 works with DVI is it has the ATI 7500 discrete graphics. The original poster had a T43 with the Intel integrated graphics which did not support DVI.
    I don't have my T42 with the ATI card with me so I cannot check using it on my 1680x1050 DVI monitor but I know I have used it with an external VGA 1440x900 monitor.
    Did you upgrade to the latest driver?

  • Satellite P100: Can I connect two external monitor to VGA & DVI port at the same time?

    The Satellite P100 comes with two external monitor port. A VGA and a DVI. Can you have have two external monitor working at the same time? Can you have two external monitor as well as your internal display working at the same time (for a total of 3 display at the same time?
    Here is what I have confirm:
    Internal display + DVI connector display
    OR
    Internal display + VGA connector display
    Is it possible to have:
    DVI connector display + VGA connector display?
    OR
    DVI connector display + VGA connector display + Internal display?

    As far as I know this is not possible and you can use either DVI or VGA port.
    For signal output can be used only one port for external display.

  • Can I connect 2 External monitors simultaneously on Toshiba notebook?

    Hi,
    I am interested to find out which of toshiba laptop's currently on offer do support 2 external monitors simultaneously (one as normal and second as extended dekstop in windows). I am looking for to replace my old configuration of laptop and docking station connected to two external monitors with resolution of 1280x1024.
    I was looking on toshiba websita at
    Portg R700-15Q
    http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/product/Portege-R700-15Q/1089286/toshibaShop/false/
    together with Port Replicator PA3680U-1PRP then some other laptop that do have port replicator but no where on the website I was able to find if any concrete model does support the dual use of the two port (VGA and HDMI or VGA and DVI)
    I was looking on the Port Replicator PA3680U-1PRP user guide at http://www.csd.toshiba.com
    http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=SB&os=&category=&moid=2756712& rpn=PA3680U&modelFilter=PA3680U-1PRP&selCategory=2756711&selFamily=116319
    and in the troubelshouting part I did found this:
    Cannot display information to a
    DVD-D and RGB Monitor at the
    same time
    Check that the cables connecting the monitors are firmly attached on
    both ends. Some computer models do not support output to DVI and RGB
    monitors simultaneously. Check the documentation for your computer
    model.
    But even if you find on http://www.csd.toshiba.com the pdf's of detailed spec's and user guides, there is no information about if they do support simultant output to monitors or not and what is the maximum resolution supported for this.
    Thanks for any help

    Thanks for the reply,
    Toshiba Dynadock did not have really good reviews and it is working via USB which would be quite slow for all the traffic needed to show the graphic information for two monitors at 1280x1024.

    Actually the PIXASA firewall does not support PPPoE since version 7.2 I believe. That is the official statement, all though I believe the commands are still there and functional. You could do it with a router.

  • Can macbookpro be used with the lid closed while using multiple external monitors

    I want to use macbook pro with external monitors and be able to close the lid on the laptop, but can't figure out how to make that works with multiple monitors.  I currently use two external monitors with the laptop monitor as my third.  All are independent monitors and I accomplish this using the matrox diamond bvu-195 product (one for each external monitor).  Now I would like to add a third external monitor and be able to close the laptop lid - kind of like you would do with a docking station for a Windows laptop.  Anyone have any suggestions as to how to accomplish this?

    Connecting your present two external displays via USB has left your MBP's Mini-DisplayPort available for a third. Depending on the monitor's available inputs, buy a mini-Displayport-to-VGA, MDP-to-DVI, or MDP-to-HDMI adapter and the appropriate cable to make the connection. I would expect that adding a third monitor to your GPU's workload might cause your already slow USB-connected monitors to slow down farther, but you'll have to see whether that's true and, if so, how tolerable it is in your work.
    As for what will happen when you close the built-in display, I suspect that what happens if you do that now will continue to happen if you do it with a third monitor connected. If you can now close the display and run the machine in closed-clamshell mode, I expect you'll still be able to do so after adding the third external screen.

  • CAN HP Envy 15t j100 Support 2 external monitors?

    Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to connect 2 external Dell monitors with HDMI inputs, to my Envy 15t j100. The evy has only 1 HDMI out port.  The Envy also has 4 USB 3.0 ports. Ideally, I would like the option to use all 3 displays (The Envy's and the 2 externals.)  But would be satisfied with just the 2 externals, extended 1 to the other, for desktop work. Any ideas? Is this possible?

    Hi,
    Unfortunately you can't use one HDMI port to connect to two monitor even with a HDMI spliter. You need a small investment to buy a piece of hardware and you can setup like:
    Actually Dell monitor is the one on the left hand side. Two external monitors are all FHD. Please watch the following video:

  • How can I split an external monitor's screen on MacBook Pro

    I have a MacBook Pro with TWO external monitors.  When maximizing a program on one of the external monitors it expands across BOTH screens. When I do the same thing on my Windows 7 system the program is contained to the monitor it is being displayed on. (Pretty smart of that PC to know which monitor I'm working on!) So HOW can I get the Mac to do the same thing? Is there a 3rd party utility that can identify multiple monitors?  I'm using a Matrix DualHead2Go to connect the two external montors to the Mini-DVI port on the Mac.
    Thanks!!

    I'm using a Matrix DualHead2Go to connect the two external montors to the Mini-DVI port on the Mac
    The behavior you describe in Windows is exactly how much multiple display system works but I have two graphics cards capable of driving two displays each. I believe you have identified the problem in the above sentence. I believe that the Mac sees the Matrix device as a single display and not the two displays themselves. With the two external monitors attached, open System Preferences and select the Displays tab. If the Mac OS sees the displays as two separate displays you should see a dialog in each of the monitors and on your MacBook Pro. If I am correct you won't see three display dialogs, you'll only see two, one on the Mac and one on one of the two external displays.

  • CS5 Playback Settings grayed out and no longer can set playback on external monitor.

    I like to view my projects while editing on an external monitor but the Playback Settings are grayed out. I've done all my prior projects with external monitor display enabled with no problems and can go back to a prior projects completed and view them using an external playback monitor.  For some reason, the Playback Settings on my latest project are grayed out and I'm not able to set Desktop Video Display During Playback.
    The last project worked on was about 3 months ago. Last week, I started working on two new projects and noticed that I wasn't able to set playback to my external monitor. All my devices are hooked up and I can review older projects on the external monitor but can't set two new projects to use display on the external monitor.  
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Problem solved. My fault.
    The Sequence Preset Settings selected must support the device the external monitor is connected to. In my case, IEEE 1394 firewire. I corrected the new project to the correct Sequence Settings and can now view playback on the external monitor.

    So everything should be covered on that front. And as I listed, I was getting playback out of AE CC, so I feel it is solely an issue in Premiere. That was worth checking out though since CC is so new. Thanks for replying.
