I am trying to get a second monitor to attach to my laptop.  USB C works but USB A does not.  Unable to charge via USB A ports, only via USB C port.

How can I get the USB A ports to detect a second monitor or charge the battery?

1. Dow do you connect USB-A to a monitor ? You need an adapter which is DisplayLink certified, do you use that ?

2. USB-A port(s) on your machine can charge your phones/tablets.... You can NOT use it to charge other devices.

 

Regards.
