DVI/HDMI connection for Thinkpad R61 (with IBM 2504 Docking station) and Samsung LNT4665F LCD TV

I am trying to connect my laptop (Thinkpad R61) with my TV (Samsung LNT4665F) using a DVI/HDMI cable. Because the R61 doesn't have a DVI port, I am using it in the IBM 2504 Docking station. I have docked the computer, connected the DVI/HDMI cord (using HDMI in 1 on the TV, which I believe is the only DVI accepted HDMI on the TV). I followed the Samsung instructions to then hit "Fn-F7" on the laptop. Unfortunately, nothing is happening. It doesn't appear that any signal is pushing out to the TV.
I am not very tech savvy. Can someone please tell me what I need to do?
Thanks for your help.

if your R61 uses an intel GPU, then it won't support the dvi passthrough port on the dock.
The 14" models with intel GMA have DVI pass through.
@ bweisy, welcome to the forum,
Which model R61 do you have? Could post the Type and Model Number Please do NOT post your s/n.
Thanks

T60 w/ Docking Station DVI - HDMI 1080p problems.

Hi,
Im currently running vista 32bit on a T60 with a docking station trying to externally display to a 1920x1080 LCD via the DVI port on the back of the docking station to the HDMI port on the LCD (Samsung N series 40").
The problem im having is when i set the resolution to 1920x1080 the output on the LCD is not crisp and there is a 1" black border around the whole screen. If you lower the resolution right down to 1024x 7xx (cant remember exactly what it is) it fills the screen and is crisp., but everything is just mega big..
I have the latest video drivers off the lenovo support page.
I also have a T43 running vista and it displays 1920x1080 via the DVI port on the docking station fine.
Has anybody seen this before and have any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks, Cam

Docking Station With HDMI Out

According to HP customer service, they do not have an HDMI Out supported docking station for their laptops. Does anyone have a working solution to this problem? Does HP have plans to bring one to market?

W540 + Dock station (40A20170EU), Audio and HDMI problems - SOLVED

Hello,
I have recently bought your dock station (40A20170EU) and as soon as I started using it the problems began:
- Audio jack on the dock is not working and is emitting static.
- As soon as I connect a display via HDMI port (on the dock station) my laptop display starts flickering (the display was tested on the PC and works).
I have updated the dock firmware to 2.21.000, nothing changed.
PS. The second monitor running from the docking stations display port is working fine.
I need your help!
Thank you!

SOLVED.
1) Removed all display drivers.
2) In BIOS I changed the display setting from standard to advanced.
3) Reinstalled all the display drivers.
4) Reconnect the HDMI monitor and now it’s working.
5) WINNING J
Thanks anyway.

Dell Venue 11 Pro Tablet Docking Station - Dock Firmware won't update or output to any monitor

Hi,
Just bought a Dell Venue 11 Pro Tablet Docking Station and it won't output to any monitor via HDMI or Displayport.
I've tried updating the firmware to V02 and V03. I get the message:
Current On-Board Firmware is 0.41.9
Do you want to update with firmware version 0.41.23 (V03) 0.41.19 (V02)
When I select yes I get the following error:
Error: Please unplug the power connector from the Dell desktop dock for 15 seconds, then plug the power connector back into the Dell desktop dock and try again.
This I keep repeating but it will not update.
The model number of the dock is: K10A001.
The only other thing I notice is that the power adapter does not appear the same as any of the pictures I have seen and is a Dell 74VT4 (65w) which seems be for a Dell XPS 18 (1810).
Please help as I think this may need to be sent back.
Thanks.

Hello,
I've exactly the same problem. I've also the model number K10A001 and the current Firmware 0.41.9, and it is also not possible for me to flash the docking station.
This is also problematic because only one monitor of the two connected monitors works. An this monitor shows only a picture, if it is plugged, after the dockingstation and the Venue 11 Pro has been started.
I think there is maybe an improved flash utility required in order to allow to flash the docking station? If some one had succeeded please respond.
Thank you

Dual Monitor HDMI Dock for MBP Retina?

Hello,
Just purchased a MBP 15 Retina for home and work. At my office I have 2 HDMI Monitors that I would like to continue to use. I know I can do this through the ports on the MBP, My question however is: Does anyone know of a docking station that supports 2 HDMI monitors?

From the technical reference guide:
http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.BINARYPORTLET/public/kb/docDisplay/resource.proc...
you can use both ports, you have to test if a dvi-d to hdmi connection will work.
Sometimes a dvi-d source can't support hdmi -if you have already one monitor, just test it.

Connect multiple devices to one Thunderbolt port with docking station

Hello everybody,
for a video editing setup I would like to use all devices connected until now directly to my iMac just with a Thunderbolt docking station on only one Thunderbolt port. What I do not understand is, whether bitrate will stay the same for each device or will be splitted? Has this to do with daisy chaining Thunderbolt devices?
So this will be the setup:
1 Thunderbolt cable from iMac to Thunderbolt docking station
devices connected to docking station:
one Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle Thunderbolt
one external USB 2.0 hard drive
one external USB 3.0 hard drive
external HDMI monitor
Ethernet connection
So the general question is, will all of these devices get only part of the bitrate that Thunderbolt provides or can each device, theoretically, get full Thunderbolt bitrate?
And are there different types of Thunderbolt cables (Thunderbolt 1 or 2) that I have to pay attention to?
Regards DonTimo

Also, if you use the Apple 27" Thunderbolt Display, it will have an additional Thunderbolt and Firewire ports on its back.

Universal docking station for Lenovo T430 and X201

Hello,
I'm looking for a universal docking station for both my T430 en my X201 laptop.
It has to have a minimum of 2 usb ports + a HDMI exit to connect to my TV. A displayport (normal or mini) is also ok.
THX in advance for the help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

http://www.displaylink.com/shop/docks
You would need usb port replicator options, but do note that these devices require usb 3.0 ports. So for your X201 you may need need to get an expresscard usb 3.0 adapter.

T510 dual external monitors without docking station

Hi, didn't find this one in google or at this forum...
can I connect 2 external monitors with resolution 1600X900 to t510 without any docking station? (one to the VGA and the other to the HDMI port). do I need the Nvidia m3100 or some other graphic card to support this? or the internal intel cpu graphic card can handle this?
same question above about 3 external monitors...

I've got a T510 with the Optimus graphics (4313CTO), one monitor connected to VGA, the other connected to the DisplayPort. According to this: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-76617.html,
I should be able to connect two external monitors, but it only allows on active external monitor at-a-time. Is that support site inaccurate? I would assume having to video cards would allow two external monitors, but this seems to be an issue for this laptop.
Best Regards,
Mike

T440s + docking station

Would it be posibble to to connect to T440s two external displays using two display ports from new docking station ? Is there any limitation for max resolution ?

Thanks

You mention support for 4k over the display port. What about over HDMI for a 4k TV like this one?
http://www.amazon.com/Seiki-Digital-SE39UY04-39-Inch-Ultra/dp/B00DOPGO2G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1383...
I believe it just needs to support HDMI 1.4a out. I also understand that HDMI 1.4a is limited to 4k @ 30hz only.
Can you confirm that the HDMI port on the highest end dock supports HDMI 1.4a and that 4k (at 30hz) will be supported?

FOR SALE - Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet, Docking Station and Keyboard Folio Case

As my daughter is insisting on a laptop, her Thinkpad Tablet and Accessories will have to go....
The tablet is the 16GB WiFi Version (1838-5SG). The Docking Station is the standard one (0A33965), as is the Keyboard Folio Case (which is a Western European keyboard type - ASM P/N 0B33512 FRU P/N 03X6354).
The Tablet has one very tiny scratch on the screen, hardly noticeable, other than that is in perfect condition (the Styuls Pen is only 4 months old). The Docking Station has a slot cut out to enable a mini HDMI Cable to be connected through the facia (to the tablet), and other than that, is in perfect condition. The Folio Keyboard Case is in perfect condition. All cables, etc are included, and the Docking Station power cable has an EU plug (note that if you live in a Country which doesn't have EU Plug sockets, a standard plug can be purchased separately from the adaptor, they normally cost pennies....)
All boxes, packaging, instructions, etc are included, including the receipts for warranty purposes. The tablet and docking station are less than 1 year old, as verified by the receipts.
I can send full info, including photos, etc, if needed.
If anyone is interested, please make me an offer.

I was thinking i could use this Motorola Wireless Keyboard, it only needs an HID bluetooth connection, the ThinkPad Tab supports HID?

Or else you will have to contact HP support to find if there is a docking unit for your laptop. RAM I think was limited to 4gigs DDR2 and they are getting expensive. With the part number you can go to HP driver site and download and read the service manual and in there it will tell you the memory configuration and what memory specs it can take.

X1 Carbon - No Sound When Connected to Docking Station

Hi,
Sound gets muted when connected to docking station/ HDMI.
Please can you help me restore sound on X1 Carbon even when connected to docking station (inc. HDMI).
Thanks,
ME

I am always amazed in these forums by the number of people who think they are helping by asking obvious questions about the problem with no clue what the real issue is or how to help.
That being said:
I had the same problem after upgrading.
Could boot your tablet, should fix the problem.
1. power off the unit.
2. Power on by holding the power button and volume up button at the same time.
3. using the volume up and down button as a right and left curser, selectt the Android icon and press the power button.
4. this will cold boot the system and the various dock functions should return.
Warning: Selecting anything else but the android icon will reset the device to factory defaults and wipeout all your info.

Docking station for my HP ENVY TS 15 Notebook PC

I just bought this laptop and I need to buy a dociking station to it. With my previous laptop there was a connector on the bottom that would snap to the docking station and make it work. The HP ENVY TS 15 Notebook PC does not seem to have any special connections. What dociking station it uses? Thanks

Consumer laptops no longer have an option for a "snap down" dock which is a shame but now industry standard. HP Business models do have that option. The only thing you can use with consumer models is a USB 3.0 "docking station" which is a bit of a misnomer since they are really "port replicators". However, USB 3.0 has enough bandwidth to replicate any and all ports on the laptop so they can have gigabit ethernet, good audio and even multi-monitor video that works fine. Something like this: http://www.amazon.com/HP-Replicator-Docking-H1L08AA-ABA/dp/B008KMDVME See, this one has 2 x usb 2 2 x usb 3, audio, ethernet, hdmi and displayport. It has its own power supply so when you hook up the laptop you hook up two cables to the laptop...its own power cord, and then connect this into one usb 3.0 on the laptop. Almost as quick as "snap down". If this is "the Answer" please click "Accept as Solution" to help others find it.
