Display issue when using a Dell Laptop with Docking station

Asked By Chad M Rutter 0 points N/A Posted on - 07/07/2014

Hi,

I am having Dell Latitude laptop. I am also having the Dell docking station along with a large monitor. This setup worked fine so far.

But, suddenly today I am getting weird issue. When I close the laptop, the monitor's display shows weird, showing parts of 4 screens and the main one will be in size Exactly same as laptop screen. I have restarted the laptop and still facing the same problem.

Is this the issue with docking station or monitor? How can I troubleshoot the issue and get resolved? Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Display issue when using a Dell Laptop with Docking station

Hi,

 

From the information you provided, it seems that the setting of your graphical drive has been changed. 

 

– Connect your dock station first.

– Go to graphical properties.

– Check that everything is fine under display option. 

– Un-tick split screen if marked. 

 

You can also go to Monitor under Windows setting and see whether you have clicked 4 screens. Thanks.
