Lenovo Ideacentre Q150 Multi-Monitor ?

hello,
does anybody know if the Lenovo Ideacentre Q150 is able to manage 2 Monitors (first via VGA and second via HDMI)?

hey sysonic,
i believe it is possible as there is a HDMI output for it.

  • Lenovo IdeaCentre K330B Dual Monitor Possible?

    I was wondering if there was a way to have a dual monitor setup with the Lenovo IdeaCentre K330B. We have the Lenovo IdeaCentre K330B 7747 and this is for an office application so no gaming. The MTM is 77471CU. I cant seem to figure out what type of card is in there. Will I need to install a new graphics card? If so, what card would work?
    Thanks for your help.
    Solved!

    Ok I got this figured out. There is a HDMI out and I couldn't see it because 1. it isdark under the desk and I couldn't move the computer well and 2. I am obviously blind as a bat and didn't see the HDMI out.
    So yes this computer is dual monitor capable

  • T430s - cannot get supported multi-monitor configuration to work

    Hi all,
    I just purchased a new T430s and, overall, I've been very happy with it.  However, I'm having trouble getting a particular multi-monitor configuration to work.  Very simply, I am trying to get the very first configuration as is described on this page...
    http://lnv.gy/15YWJnf
    It is simply a 3-monitor setup where one monitor is external and hooked up via VGA, another monitor is external and hooked up via DisplayPort, and the third monitor is the actual laptop monitor.  I simply cannot get this to work!  I can plug in a single external monitor, but when I try and plug in a second, it always disables my laptop monitor, so I end up with only a 2-monitor setup.  Can anyone please help?
    *Also, I should note, I've called Lenovo Support 3 times after encountering this problem, and, suffice it to say, it was an EXTREMELY frustrating and discouraiging experience.  All in all, I spent over 2 hours on the phone and each time, they essentially REFUSED to help me!  They kept citing that it was a "configuration" issue and that it's not their problem, and then they'd forward me to another department which would then forward me right back to them.  At one point, one rep said that I was essentially "**bleep** out of luck".  Furthermore, when I was getting frustrated with the lack of help, I asked a rep to escalate the issue and allow me to talk to a manager.  He said that he COULDN'T DO IT because the system wouldn't allow it, again, citing that it's a configuration issue and not their responsibility!  Does anyone from Lenovo ever read these forums?  Will someone PLEASE take ownership of this issue and help me out?  I'm not asking for much!  I just want to get a setup that you guys say is supported!
    Sorry for the rant, but my interactions with Lenovo support have really been frustrating.  Anyways, any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

    whoischarles,
    Welcome to the forum!  Thanks for the question and  tweet about this thread.  Thanks Lead_Org for getting us started... I know you have tried out a number of multiple display configs, so you may have some follow up suggestions....
    As far as I know...
    The T430s supports external displays a little differently than the T420s did, and differently than the T430 and T530 do.  There are a number of different discussions on T430s multiple display configs in the forum - you might search a few and just browse them to see the combinations others have tried and their experiences.  Here is one example.  Here is another more recent.
    Here is another more recent.
    Here is an official tip with specific configs that Lenovo supports for the T430s.
    From our official tip, it appears that you cannot have both the LCD and external VGA and displayport.  I think you can have 2 external displayport displays and either a 3rd external via VGA port, or the built in LCD.   I remember trying out some of these a year or so ago, and I seem to recall that you needed a dock to get 3 external, or 2 external and the internal LCD to work on the T430s. 
    Best regards,

  • Faulty Lenovo ThinkVision 19 inches monitor -L194WD. Half of the is screen fuzzy

    We have five faulty Lenovo ThinkVision 19 inches monitor -L194WD.
     Quota of upper part of the monitor is washed-out  or fuzzy and three quotas of the lower part of the monitor appear to be OK. Any idea, advice or solution will be extremely appreciated. Please help me to solve this problem.

    Huskka,
    Welcome to the forum...
    Can you tell us a bit more about the situation?    How many of these displays do you have in total?  Just these five?    And all five of them do exactly the same thing, when connected to the same computer?
    How long have you had these?   Have they ever worked properly, and this condition developed over time, or have they never worked in this configuration?
    What system are you connecting them to?   Are you using an analog or digital connection?
    Thanks

  • IdeaCentre A320 blinking monitor buttons

    Hello, I have serious (it really is for me) problem with my Lenovo IdeaCentre A320. The diodes of the controls on the right side of the monitor (OK, left, right) are spontaneously turning on and off and they do the same even if the computer is switched off. What the hell is wrong with them? It's just about the lights, not the buttons' action (no menu appears). 2 mins off, 5 mins on, 1 hour off, 2 hours on, oh **bleep**. Anybody can help me?

    Hi foibos, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
    Mad LEDs! Apparently they're not so mad, as they are expected to stay on when the system is shut down:

  • Multi-monitor SW is affecting VMware performance on Helix

    I have discovered that running multi-monitor software like Matrix desktop management is affecting the VMware Workstation 10 guest performance so drastically that virtual machines become literally unusable.  Similar experience is reported by other people using different multi-monitor software like DisplayFusion, see https://communities.vmware.com/message/2315099#2315099
    ThinkPad W520, i7-2820 CPU, 32GB RAM, NVidia Quadro 2000M 2GB GPU , mSATA Samsung Evo 840 1TB + 2x Samsung SSD EVO 840 1TB & Lenovo Helix i7 8GB RAM & ThinkPad W540, i7-4800MQ, 32 GB RAM, NVidia Quadro K1100M, OS on M.2 2242 Transcend MTS400 256GB + 2x Samsung SSD EVO 840 1TB

    Ray, it will do a lot more good if you file an official bug report at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    Be sure to describe the configuration in extreme detail.

    You'd need to tell us what kind of film and cameras you have. I think you'll need to buy some equipment to do that.
    An alternative is to send your film to a place like Integrated Imaging and they could transfer it to DVD or another suitable format for iMovie.

  • IdeaCentre Q150 BIOS Problem

    Hello,
    My company purchased 5 IdeaCentre Q150's to use on a current project.    All are the same configuration (4081-6AU).   We have a custom Windows 7 64-bit image running on each of them.   To take maximum advantage of the systems, we ordered 4GB RAM upgrades for each unit.
    4 of the 5 units work just fine with the 4GB RAM upgrades, one unit simply will not post.
    Upon further investigation, we found out that the BIOS version on the one unit is older than the rest.
    4 units have the following BIOS:
    REV: D7KT14AUS
    Boot Block: D714A
    BIOS Date: 11/17/10
    The one unit that will not boot with 4GB of RAM has the following BIOS:
    REV: D7KT12AUS
    Boot Block: D712A
    BIOS Date: 6/03/10
    I have searched all over Lenovo's website and the internet for a BIOS update with no luck.   Does anyone know where to find the BIOS update for the IdeaCentre Q150?
    I would hate to have to return this unit simply because of an out of date BIOS that could potentially be upgraded.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    could you pm to me the following details with the reason why you need a BIOS update.

  • Multi monitor issues with resolution(?)

    At a customer I have got a really strange and annoying problem. The customer has got a Hyper-V VM with 2012 R2 Server as a RDS server aka Terminal Server.
    One user has got issues with his multi monitor setup. The connection settings seems to be OK. It is set to full screen and the checkbox for the multi monitor configuration is enabled. Theoretically this works because the user sees a correct setup with one
    primary display and one secondary display. The settings itself are correct.
    1. Primary display: 1680*1050
    2. Secondary display: 27" 1920*1080
    The display settings on the client are nearly the same except that the numbers of the two monitors are different (those numbers you get when you click identify at the resolution change window). On the Windows 7 client the primary display
    number 2 and the 27" has got the number 1. On the Terminal Server the primary display has got the number 1 and the 27" display has got the number 2. But the corresponding resolution at the display number is correct.
    Now the problem. Everything seems fine, the desktop is expended. But when the user is "touching" the top or bottom edge of the screen the display is scrolling (in full screen) -  like in a 3D game scrolling over a map. The user told me that
    both screens are scrolling equally at the same time. I am not sure but the user told me that if he is going to the bottom the CLIENT task bar appears. Changing the task bar of the client to fixed the user told me that the task bar will always show up. - Strange
    that CTRL + ALT + BREAK does not work.
    I tried to press CTRL + ALT + BREAK twice, changing the resolution to a fixed value and back to full screen again, changing the primary display to the new 27" monitor, adding smart sizing:i:1 to rdp file and upgrading the Intel HD
    4600 laptop graphic drivers (must be downloaded from Lenovo :/). NOTHING helped :(.
    But this strange behavior does not exist on the client. Opening two programs (simple notepad e.g.) on each display and maximize them and moving the mouse the screen borders won't show this problem. It only exist on the remote session. 
    Now the "funny" part. If I connect with Team Viewer to the client the problem disappears as long as I am connected. If I disconnect the problem shows up again.

    Hi,
    This is most likely a problem with the local machine's graphics driver and monitor configuration.  I would suggest trying different things like removing and re-installing the display adapter and its drivers, removing the second monitor/restarting/adding
    the second monitor back, adjusting the multi-monitor settings in display properties (changing between extending the desktop to the second monitor and not), undocking/restarting/docking, changing between different modes using Fn key on laptop (if laptop), etc.
    The behavior under Team Viewer is likely because the graphics configuration is different when the driver is active.
    I wish I could give you more precise instructions on how to resolve the issue.  I have seen this behavior (panning desktop, multi-monitor config not exactly right) probably 3 times over the last 5 years, always with a laptop, and I had to "play"
    with the settings before it finally went back to normal.  The instances I have seen it occur did not involve Remote Desktop specifically.

  • IdeaCentre Q150 Problem installing gma3150 graphic card drivers

    Hi all,
    I just bought an ideacentre q150 with ion-chipset without an operating system. I installes windows 7 32bit via usb stcik. now i downloaded the drivers from the lenovo homepage, for lan, wlan, chipset, onboard gma3150 and ion card. Unfortunately the driver for the gma chipset failed to install, the failure notice is : "This system does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software ". The driver for the nvidia card installs fine, but when i do the 'speed test' (don't know how it's called in english - I'm german) in the windows control panel, the index for the 2D (aero)-part is still at 1,0. The 3D part is fine. In the device manager there is no error, and just the nvidia card is shown... for asus ion chisets there is a tools called graphicswitcher, but it fails on the lenovo system.
    I searched a lot but didn't find answers, maybe you can help?
    thnks in advance
    greets

    This could be good advice. But does that mean I should ignore the updates that windows and ATI's built-in driver update finds? If so do you have a link to the URL of the legitimate drivers? That would be greatly appreciated. That way I can test your theory and possibly salvage the machine.
    Yes, don't use Windows Update for the Switchable graphics update. Only use HP driver site for switchable graphics drivers. And disable ATI/AMD update to prevent those updates. Put this way if you don't see that switchable graphics update on HP then don't update it-they tested and configured it for the stablility and updating it without confirming that the update is a verified it is for switchable graphics.

  • Multi-Monitor PSE 9 Corrupt Display

    Multi-Monitor PSE 9 Corrupt Display
    Evening all -
    First post here at PS Gurus.  I hope that you guys can lend your  expertise in pinning down an issue that I am having and have also had on  other PS versions.  I am running
    Windows 7 (64 bit) Ultimate
    2600k / 8 gb ram / 256 Samsung SSD / 460 GTX 1GB
    Matrox Triplehead 2 Go with x3 22" monitors (resolution 5040 x1050)
    A fresh install of the trial version of PSE 9 is yielding corrupt main  toolbar and options bar (for each tool selected).  The application is  expanding full screen on all three monitors just fine but the toolbar  are corrupt - partly transparent / party compressed to the left.  No  matter what I have done in terms of resizing the application window the  results are the same or get worse.
    On another computer I installed PS CS5 (also under win7 64 bit  environment) and I was having the same issue.  However, at the time I  thought the install was bad in some shape or form so I dropped the  issue. 
    I am now considering PSE 9 but see that Win7 + Matrox just isn't  working correctly with this combination of hardware / software  components. 
    Has anyone see this issue or know of a potential fix?  I have read a  couple of threads on the net with similar issues but I don't see any  resolution.  Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks-
    Benjamin

    My main reason for testing PSE-O 9.0 was to find out if this "bug" was fixed. I can not use PSE-O to organize and show pictures the way I want to with this weaknes in place. Your answer is probably correct, bun not at all helpfull.
    So thank you for trying, but my test of PSE O is over for now.
    Does anybody out there know of other products that will do the trick?

  • Uix 2.2.8 multi monitor related bug

    Hi,
    I have a multi monitor system, on the seconnd screen, there is the browser , showing a page which has a Date Picker and a LOV. If I click on one of the icons, the window opens, and then all of a sudden jumps to the first screen with IE, with Mozilla it already opens on the first one. Same screen would be nice though.
    Bye Jan

    Hello Jan,
    In the UIX javascript code the newly opened window's coordinates are checked to make sure it is not partially off the screen. If so, the window's coordinates are adjusted to put it on the screen.
    I think there is a bug in IE which doesn't treat the multi-monitors as a single monitor, or something like that. Unfortunately, I doubt we can do anything about this.
    Are you saying it works in Mozilla, correct?
    Thanks,
    Jeanne

  • Multi monitor cursor swapping

    I've got three monitors lined up and I'm looking for a way to instantly center the cursor on a specific display to avoid dragging it everywhere. I know there's a software called Multi Monitor Mouse for Windows which is supposed to handle that pretty well. So do you guys know a corresponding software or script for mac or is it possible to run the win. app in OS X via 3rd party software?
    /Erik

    Is the question clear or should I rephrase it?
    I need a keyommand to move the cursor from one screen to another.

  • Multi Monitor - different Screeen Saver for different monitor - Setting for notebook computers...

    Hi,
    I have a question about the multi monitor, screen saver setting for Windows 7.  I'd like to know 2 questions.
    1.) if I can set different screen saver settings on different monitors
    2.) If I can do it, can I work on the external (or non-primay) monitor, when I have the primary monitor with "blank" screen saver?
    Basically, I put my notebook computer at the docking station at work, and the docking station is connected to a 22" monitor, desktop keyboard and mouse.  So, at work, the 22" monitor and K/B would be my primary use.  However, I still "flip"
    open the notebook monitor for dual monitor use. 
    I'd like to "save" the notebook monitor when I don't use it for 30 min. or so...  I'd like to "power" it off or set it so that it would only turn on if I move my mouse to that screen.
    Is there a way to do it?
    Thanks

    Hi
    There isn't any way to do what you are describing.
    The reason is that both monitors have the same source for the video. You can extend the video to the second monitor, but this just gives you more screen space.
    The screen saver will only display on the monitor that is set as the default and when the screen saver starts, the other monitor will be blank.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank You for using Windows 7
