Docking Station Compatibilitu

[Mushroom_Boy]

I bought a Pavilion dv7 years ago.  Is it able to interface with a docking station (HP or universal) in order to control my peripherals?

Compare your system with the requirements for the dock.

For example check the specifications on your computer and compare them to the docking station you want to use.

HP products (might not be all inclusive - depends on when document was created compared to when you are reading):

HP Dock Solutions

and / or

Visit the HP Store

For example

  Store/HP.com USA Sales

  Not your HP store?  Scroll to the bottom of the website and click the Flag to change regions.

Search for "notebook pc docking"

Next, click (under Categories" to view Displays and Accessories

Select your item

Click on Tech Specs

=========================================================

Universal docking stations might work - compare your computer's specifications (ports, for example), what you want to accomplish, and look for a product that meets that setup.
