Your attached monitor will repeatedly flash off and on again.You repeatedly hear the device disconnect and reconnect chime.Is there a specific spec that these are intended to work with only? This is the only real issue that bothers me with the SP3 and I was terribly hoping it would be resolved with the surface book with an discreet nvidia card.Your USB video adapter, USB docking station or USB monitor constantly disconnects and reconnects, or freezes. It's a little laggy at times and I still don't get full support, but I get at least 1080p. With both surfacebook and SP3 I'm able to render display over USB to two external monitors just fine. Ironically I also have a USB3 Anker dock that doesn't use mini-dvi.

I hacked the SP3 back and forth installing custom intel drivers and official microsoft ones. It's just always wonky and not supporting resolutions it says it can, often providing only smaller odd resolutions. I've had similar problems with the SP3 dock and SP3.

unlock - both external monitors stop working.

It looks like it may work in monitor settings, but doesn't show any valid display resolutions.

closing the book (sleep) and opening sometimes fixes it or sometimes kills both external until reboot. unlock - two external monitors work and surface book screen is inactive.When I restart my surfacebook, with the dock plugged in, it all works.Īt some point in the day between locking my PC (I'm at work and can't leave it unlocked) one of two things happens: Asus 1080p monitor (dock->dvi_to_hdmi->monitor) - 1080p.Only 3rd party drivers are the ones that MS doesn't cover.Īt work I have two external monitors plugged into the dock:
