Hi all,
I am trying to connect a 3rd display to EliteBook 840 G3 using a Displayport to 2 HDMI splitter hub. The splitter hub works fine with 2 displays but it disconnects the display attached to the VGA port. When I enable the display attached to the VGA port, it disables one of the displays attached to the hub. It looks like EliteBook 840 G3 cant handle more than 2 external displays.
Is there a work around for this ?
Regards

Using HDMI splitter will give you SAME contents on both screens. What for ? You do not want duplicated don't you ?

Ok, it is not a splitter then. It is an adapter or a hub. All you need is a proper adapter using result from above link.
