HP 2005pr USB 2.0 Port Replicator - Video not with my Surface Pro 3

Hi everyone,
I've spent tons of hours already trying to get the HP 2005pr USB 2.0 Port Replicator working with my Surface Pro 3 and no luck. I mean, the USB replication / hub works, meaning that if I plug in a USB mouse / keyboard, they work. It recognizes the device in Device Manager and the ViewSpan application is running. But if I plug in a display in the VGA, nothing happens, no monitor gets detected, and even if I "force-detect" one it still doesn't display anything.
I've tried with 3 driver versions so far:
0.2.5 - not working at all. Reboots my Surface while installing. (this one is on the device itself).
3.X - which is the first with support for Windows 8 I think. I can install it and everything works as described above - meaning no VGA.
5.3.X - same story as above.
I've tried uninstalling, restarting and uninstalling several times with both versions. No luck. And I've literally been on every forum where people have problems with the replicator and nothing helped.
Anyone had any luck getting such a setup to work?
Or any ideas on how to get it to work?
Thanks.

Hi @blinkk2
I see that you are having problem connecting an external monitor to your Microsoft Surface Pro 3 through the HP USB Port Replicator. As the USB ports are working with the mouse and keyboard we know what the Port Replicator itself is working this is going to be something with the drivers on the Surface. I would recommend contacting Microsoft Support to see if they can recommend a graphics driver for you.

  • Lenovo USB 2.0 Port Replicator Office 2013 BSOD's

    Incident on Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 420s with Lenovo USB 2.0 Port Replicator attached.
    If we use Windows 7 and Office 2010 "Lenovo USB 2.0 Port Replicator with Digital Video v16.0.1" Works without issues.
    As soon as we upgrade to Office 2013 and use the newest official DisplayLink v. 7.1 software, the laptop has random BSOD's when Office programs are open.
    With Lenovos driver Office 2013 app's won't run at all.
    So will there be a driver available from Lenovo that fixes the issue?

    We (DispkayLink) have tested office 2013 and not found any BSODs so there must be something system specific.
    Could you gather the system logs and post here so we can see what might be wrong? Details on how to do this are here:

    Your reply is 2 months later, I had to revert to Office 2010 and return the laptop to the end user.
    But, I got another model of the same laptop right now which can be used to test it, I will let you know if it works out this time with the lates DisplayLink software for Windows.

  • Panasonic camcorder HDC-TM90 any experience using Pavtube Video Converter with Final Cut Pro X

    Does anyone have any experience using Pavtube Video Converter with Final Cut Pro X for Panasonic camcorder HDC-TM90 shooting in 1080 P 60 ( mts file extension)

    Don't use these generic offbrand converters to get footage into FCP X. they re-encode your video and cause loss of quality. If FCP X cannot import your video then use a utility that simply re-wraps it into a quicktime file with no transcoding or loss. I prefer Clipwrap which works great and is updated frequently but there are free alternatives like Media Converter or Rewrap.
    But version 10.04 of FCP X should import it directly from camera as long as the folder structure is complete and you are not trying to merely import it from single mts files.

  • Lenovo USB 2.0 Port Replicator Freezes Issues and Problems

    Okay, I have THREE of these port replicators in my office, and ALL THREE have the exact same problem on various laptops(X1, T420, Edge 13) with various kayboard/mice.  I've been through all stages of the port replicator drivers on the various systems, and the issue is always there.  All laptop drivers are updated.
    Here is the issue: working away, and then bam, mouse and keyboard don't work.  I'm working in a external monitor only display setup.  I go to the keyboard/touchpad on the laptop and they don't work...however ctrl+alt+delete works on the laptop keyboard(not the regular one).  Then the touchpad works...but I can't click on any of the settings EXCEPT sleep.  When I press a button to wake it up, everything works fine.  Basic external keyboards/mice, no need for different drivers.
    The other thing that fixes everything is unplugging the USB connection from the port replicator and plugging it back in to the laptop(or unplugging the power to the port replicator). 
    The weird thing is that I took the keyboard and mouse and they are plugged into the laptop itself, NOT the dock, and I still get the same issue with responsiveness.  This happens on ALL the docks, so it's not a keyboard/mouse driver thing. 
    The one thing that's occuring to me is that maybe it's a weird display issue?  I haven't tried actually using the external or laptop keyboard to run commands while it's frozen...and I also haven't tried unplugging things from the port replicator one by one (such as unplugging the display cable from the port replicator, then the printer, then the ethernet).  I'll keep you updated if I get any further.  It's been like this for months, and my users are just doing the workarounds.  one thing is for sure...
    I'M NEVER GOING TO SUBSTITUE THIS PORT REPLICATOR FOR A NORMAL DOCK AGAIN! (although i have no choice with the X1). 

    Hi skrasher, welcome to the forum,
    could you please try the following to see if it changes the behaviour of the USB ports.  In Device Manager, with the port rep attached, disable the ability on each of the USB Root Hubs for Windows to disable the device in order to save power, restart the system and see if the problem still occurs.
    Let us know how you get on.
    edit; for clarity

  • Enhanced USB Port Replicator under Vista with blank taskbar

    I have an annoying bug where the vista taskbar goes blank under Vista.  I'm running an X300 with the Enhanced USB Port Replicator attached to an external monitor.  I have set the external monitor as the primary monitor.  With this configuration, the taskbar usually goes blank -- i.e. the taskbar shows nothing except a window frame and the start button.  There are no applications shown, no quicklaunch icons, no tooltray icons... nothing.  The taskbar is still functioning correctly, and it will show thumbnails of open applications, or allow you to click on any items that are there but not displayed.  Any idea why this bug is there or how to fix it.
    I found it really annoying and problematic till I found an quick workaround... unlock the taskbar and stretch it out and it will begin displaying properly again.

    I have an X301 running Vista Business.  The 2 second freezes are really annoying.
    Has anyone tried the displaylink driver http://www.displaylink.com/downloads.html to see if it helps?

  • Help - T42p and Lenovo Enhanced Port Replicator does not external monitor

        T42p  Win Xp SP2  2GB Memory ATI Mobility Fire GL T2
    I had an old style port replicator that supported my ThinkVision 17" flat panel monitor.  The port replicator died and I got a replacement  - Lenovo Enhanced port replicator.  If I go to the Control panel/Display it now shows 3 monitors and when I try to enable #2 or #3 it takes the extend my desktop setting but when you press the identify button it only recognizes #1 (my T42).  My external monitor is blank..............any ideas where to start?

    No, I could not get help from any place. I did some research on my own and realized that the Lenovo port replicator (with Lenovo name on it) is actually theTargus ACP50 which is sold as a universal port replicator. The difference is that the Lenovo unit has a driver specific to Lenovo. I even went to Targus website and download their latest “generic” driver. The driver worked with the Lenovo computer fine, but still does not resolve the issues that you and I see. So I concluded that it is the port replicator crappy design.

  • Unable to make Port Replicator 43R8770 work with T400

    I have a relatively new (four months old) T400 ThinkPad running on Windows XP SP3, and I have been unable to get the Port Replicator to work at all with it.  I am attempting to simply mirror my notebook display on a larger monitor, and have installed the latest driver for the replicator from the Lenovo website.  The system tray icon for the replicator never appears, even after installing and uninstalling the driver, and so I am unable to get the two monitors to mirror each other. 
    The only indication I have that something is wrong is during the driver install I receive an "Application Error" message for some file labeled ed_16208.exe.  I know that the Port Replicator works fine, as I have been using it for the last four months with an older T42 notebook running on XP SP2.
    The Lenovo phone rep was completely unable to help me.  His only suggestion was that it must be that the replicator doesn't work with SP3, since it worked with SP2 on the older model, and that I shouldn't have had Windows automatic updates turned on.  (I'm serious.)  I reminded him that Lenovo shipped the new T400 to me with SP3 installed, and his response was that it was therefore a Microsoft problem and that I should try to roll the notebook back to SP2.  At that point I told him I might as well just use the replicator as a door stop.
    I am completely frustrated.

    An update.  I was able to get the Lenovo Display Adapter system tray icon to appear.  However, I can't adjust the settings on it to get it to mirror, and when I attempt to do so there is an error message on the icon for the Lenovo Display Adapter that states "Change Display Settings Failed: Bad mode while setting \\.  \DISPLAYV1 enabled in registry"
    Does anyone have any ideas?

  • Embedded audio and video files with Acrobat x Pro

    Can an audio or video file be embedded in a document with Acrobat x Pro & opened with Adobe Reader xi?

    You can place video or sound files onto the pages of a PDF file using the Multimedia button on the Tools Pane > Content Panel. The result is called a Rich Media Annotation, and will play back on the desktop versions of Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader.
    The files have to be compatible with Flash Player, so videos need to be in H.264, FLV or F4V, and audio files in MP3.

  • Embeding Video/Audio with a Premiere Pro Project File

    Can anyone tell me how you can Embed your video/audio files with a Premeire Pro CS6 project file?  Copying all the original footage from your specific project and placing it into a folder with the project file? Thanks alot.
    Brandon C.

    You can't.  The only asset from a PP project that can be embedded into the project file are PP generated titles.  Everything else will always be a separate file on the hard drive.
    As for copying those separate files to a single location, I personally recommend using the proper tool for the job.  File management should always be done using a file manager, like Windows Explorer or Finder.

  • Thnkpad T61 w port replicator - Video won't extend to external monitor

    Okay, I pressed what I thought was a ctrl-alt-del combo on my laptop and but obviously it wasn't as now my video, while fine on the laptop, will not extend to the replicator's attached video.  I've restarted the machine, cold started it, unplugged from the replicator, hit the Fn+F7 keys, but nothing seems to allow my video back.  In the display settings (Vista), I extend all day and nothing shows on the monitor.  Out of ideas, and hoping someone can help.  THanks.

    I fixed the system.
    However, I still don't know the root cause of the original problem.
    The missing piece of the fix was doing an uninstall of the video device drivers using the Control Panel 'Add or Remove Programs' function.  Prior to that I was just updating things using either the package's native installers or the Device Manager Update Driver function.
    After the uninstall I did a clean install of the MSI drivers off a CD and now have selectable digital and/or analog displays in Windows XP.  Also, the nvidia drivers DO work, provided they are installed on a 'clean' suystem (thanks, Stu).  Installing either driver set as an update results in unstable output - sometimes digital, sometimes analog.
    Moral of the story: clean up toothpaste before squeezing the tube again.

    And if it supports 802.11a or 802.11b it may not offer the full WPA2 encryption, in which case you want to be at least 1500 feet (500 meters) from the nearest neighbor to ensure a secure connection.  802.11g supports WPA2 as well, and is also supported by the MacBook Pro.  It just is slower at 33 Mbps.
