Elitebook 840 G2
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I got a port Replicator 3005pr for the Elitebook.

 

I'm conecting it to the USB with the small thuntherbolt in it (the one closest to the vga port in the left side) Power conected to the replicator, and everything is working fine (display, keyboard, network, audio...) but, laptop is not charging.

 

I thought this was supposed to charge thought USB,  but no connected to power icon shows on windows.

So that is the reason it came with another charger. And I happily thought it was to have an spare one 🙂
