HP Spectre x360 - 13t-ae000 CTO
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

I bought a USB Type-C to VGA adapter since I often need to connect my laptop to projectors.

I bought a ROCK adapter, but Im not able to connect anything to it.
I trided connecting my laptop to a TV, various monitors and two types of projectors, but nothing happens.

I don't get an error notifivation or anything like that, it just won't cedognize the external monitor/projector.

I tried with all the settings I could remember of in Windows 10, but it didn't help.

My laptop model is HP Spectre x360 - 13t-ae000 CTO, and if the adapter is not supported by HP, then please let me know which models of Type C to VGA adapters are supported, that is, work 100%, so that I could buy the corresponding one.
If there is a sowtware fix, that would be even better. I just need to know if anyone else had a similar problem.

 

Thanks in advance

Welcome to HP forum, I see that the USB type C to VGA adapter is not working.

  • Is it a thunderbolt adapter, If not it will not work.

Let me know if that helps.

If this helps, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.

Yes, it helped me. It doesn't work and I found that only a couple of adapters work with mylaptop model.

- HP USB-C to VGA Display Adapter P7Z54AA

- HP Spectre USB-C™ Travel Dock 2SR85AA

 

Maybe that will be helpful to someone.
