E540 and the OneLink Pro

Hi Everyone,
I have a new E540 and OneLink Pro and cannot get the DisplayPort or DVI port to work with my external monitors?
I have tested the monitors and the cables and all works perfectly with my old docking solution(Dell E5530)
I have checked the forums and the net and have found out that the Yoga users required a new BIOS to fix similar issues and have seen that there are fixes out for docks like so;

http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?DocID=HT081248
Could someone please raise the issue with the engineering teams that these issues are also appearing on the E540 and not just the Yoga.
Thank you

Lenovo replaced the dock, still no luck. The laptop monitor flashes black and I can hear Windows connecting and disconnecting a device.
My laptop screen only returns once I have disconnected the external monitor from the dock
For the love of God, has anyone got a e440 or e540 to work with the one link pro
If not I will be requesting new hardware from Lenovo which gives me a laptop and a dock
Please help or fix the problem via a bios update or firmware update for the dock

    You can use the two graphics cards, but it's only useful if you have more than two displays. It won't give you higher speed.

  • Nvidia CUDA for 27" iMac and the Mac Pro

    I want to use Adobe Premier CS5.5 and it's Mercury Playback engine. What Nvidia CUDA-enabled card should I get for the 27" iMac and the Mac Pro to use this feature in Premier CS5?

    No. Open the App Store on one computer running Snow Leopard. Purchase and download Lion. On the other computer open the App Store, log on using the same Apple ID, re-download Lion at no extra charge.

  • Final Cut Express HD and the Macbook Pro

    I just purchased a Macbook Pro along with final cut express HD. After purchase I read that FCE HD won't work with the macbook pro. I was hoping to see if anyone knew if they were coming out with an upgrade to the universal version like they are with Final Cut Pro.

    That will not work. Ian's solution is for dual core G5s and PCIe based iMacs. It does not address Intel based machines like the 2006 iMac and the MacBook Pro. These machines will have to wait till the end of March for the release of new Universal Binary software to run on them. It's possible FCE3 will never run and will need to be upgraded to another version. If you recently purchased FCE HD to run it on this new computer, I'd suggest, if you can, to return it until the position on the new software becomes clear.

  • Pros and cons of the macbook air and the macbook pro

    Hi!
    This coming year, my younger daugter will go to high school and need a macbook because she is dyslectic. I want to know which one between the macbook air and the macbook pro will be the best for her. Thanks for your answer.

    At least according to their web site, Whitesmoke Executive is not compatible with the Mac operating system.
    Word Q does have a Mac version. http://www.goqsoftware.com/products/
    I was unable to figure out what software package you meant by Antidote. There are several.
    Word, of course, is part of MS Office, and they make a Mac OS version. I use Office 2011 daily.
    None of these products are likely to tax the hardware of either of the computers you mention at all. The computer will be spending most of its time waiting for your daughter to do something.
    Note - my neice just bought a MacBook Air 11". She is entering the University of South Carolina in the fall and is absolutely thrilled with the computer.

  • Question re: 1920x1200 RGB LED Display and the Macbook Pros LED display.

    My question to the Apple guys here is. What type of LED technology is used in the MacBook Pro's LED display?
    I just did a side by side with my buddies new 15" MBP and my new DELL Studio 1737 which has a 1920x1200 which has RGB LED display. I had it second day air FEdEx shipped because I was dying to see this new tech.
    And did it blow us away, supposedly since its this new RGB LED it displays something around 98% or 110% of the NTSC color gamut very accurate for graphics and photo work.
    My buddy almost dropped when we saw the color accuracy and differences with the MBP. And why hasn't Apple adopted this superior technology?

    What do you mean they don't have LED its right on the main page.
    Read it carefully, it says "Ultrathin 15-inch LED-backlit display." The "LED-backlit display" part means that the backlighting is LED (as opposed to fluorescent), not the display panel itself (which is LCD).
    ...Dell has the RGB LED backlighting....
    The Dell display you referred to is an RGB LED display, it doesn't have (or need) backlighting. It uses red, green and blue light emitting diodes to produce images, as opposed to a liquid crystal display, which uses color filtered backlighting to produce images.
    its confusing why Apple has not adopted this new tech to its high end $3,000 MBP 17 models.
    Yet. The 17" MBPs are reportedly due for a significant hardware revision next month. In any case, RGB LED displays have their own performance issues when compared to LCD displays, so don't get too excited, and they may not be thin enough to fit Apple's ultrathin design philosophy.
    I have no idea what RGB LED was it just seemed better, and boy did it pay off.
    I'm sure you'll have loads of fun with Windows Vista.

  • Macbook and the Macbook Pro Adapter

    Recently my Macbook power supply failed. So i sent it off to Apple for a replacement. While waiting for the replacement to arrive I have been using a Macbook Pro power supply, which im sure some of you are aware is a higher voltage. Now my Macbook is randomly turning off. Ive been advised to backup and wipe the machine and do a long overdue reinstall.
    My 1 year warranty runs out in three weeks so i have to be quick if I want to send it back for repair. Could the Macbook Pro Adapter cause these issues ? Im expecting the replacement Macbook power adapter back in the next couple of days should i try it with this or send it straight to Apple ?

    No, the MacBook Pro adapter is perfectly safe on a MacBook.
    If you look at the box on the larger power adapter in the Apple Store, it even says it's fine for MacBook and MacBook Pro. The small power adapter box says MacBook only.
    The difference between the adapters isn't voltage, it's maximum current capability.

    There's an Apple help page on the DNS problem - at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408
    The first thing to try is changing your DNS settings - and for that you need to open System Preferences, then the
    Network section.
    In Network - click  on Advanced - then the DNS tab
    under DNS servers - use the + button to enter two extra lines
    either these, from google dns
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    or from OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    then click OK & then 'Apply'
    You would need to do that seperately for the Cable (Ethernet) settings and Wireless (Airport)

  • Express34 card and the MacBook Pro 17'

    Greetings,
    Recently I acquired a MBP 17", SeriTek E Bundle including a dualbay hot-swap enclosure for 2 SATA 7200 rpm 250gig Hitachi HDrives w/8meg buffer [not much HD heat] and the SATA-2SM2-E Express card/34.
    Just completed a FCS5.1.1 DV25 project, from digitizing to record tape out, the system functioned flawlessly.
    I'll be cutting a in-house HDV project next. Digitizing HDV footage to the two external SATA drives has gone as expected, no problems...

    Where did you get your SATA drives from (if you don't mind me asking)?
    And I'm assuming you're using the Firmtek Expresscard adapter?
    Glad to hear it worked so well. I'm going to need 2TB of storage on an upcoming project and was considering going that route. Just a little intimidated as I know little about SATAs, especially running of the Express Card.

  • Standard 3.5mm Cables and The MacBook Pro

    My MBP is just over a year old now.
    I have a standard 3.5mm Male to Male cable that I intended to
    connect the mbp to my TV (which has a 3.5mm imput jack).
    For some strange reason, the 3.5mm Cable will not fit into the
    MBP's headphone jack(fits part way but only gives one side of sound).
    I was under the impression that the headphone
    jack was a standard 3.5mm jack.
    If not, what size do I really need.
    Really appreciate any help you can provide on this.

    I am finding the tablet to be inconsistent with my new macbook pro. When the computer goes to sleep, some of the time I come back and find the bluetooth connection between the computer and the tablet as been broken. Sometimes it's just a matter of reconnecting the devices, but other times, even after running through the new connection helper, the tablet still isn't communicating with the computer and in the end I have to reboot. I have installed the latest drivers from Wacom. Any one else experiencing these issues...

  • Is there a difference between the macbook air and the macbook pro?

    i know the specs but are there some differences where you can tell me about??

    The differences are pretty obvious if you've read the technical specifications comparison. Which MacBook Pro are you comparing the MacBook Air against? There are additional differences if you're comparing between 13, 15 or 17" models.
    The most obvious differences:
    Optical Drive
    Ethernet port
    FireWire port
    i5/i7 CPU architecture
    Dedicated GPU (15 & 17 MBP)
    RAM and HDD upgradeability
    Backlit keyboard
