Hi all,
I have recently purchased a Pavilion 14 laptop that has 8GB RAM and the Intel Core i5 processor. I was hoping to run two separate monitors from it. One via the laptop's HDMI socket and the second via an HDMI socket connected to the USB C connector. I would close the laptop screen so only the two screens are running. However, the screen connected to the USB C multi way adaptor will not operate.
It is not the screen, USB C adaptor or leads at fault as I have tested them, and so I am wondering if the computer graphics driver is capable of running two remote screens?!!
Would it make a difference if I could connect via an HP docking station?
Any help welcome!!

Hi Banhien,
Thank you for responding to my post. The product information is:
I would be so grateful if you could suggest a suitable product that will allow one or two HDMI monitors connected to the laptop via either a docking station or USB C Datalink device.
I am happy to have one monitor connected to the computer HDMI and one to the dock/link or both monitors via the dock/link.
Many thanks,
Philip

Hi again,
Any further thoughts on my problem? I really would appreciate some guidance as so far it seems that the model noted in my post is not allowing a monitor to be connected via an adaptor connected to the USB C. Is any extra software likely to be needed?
Please help!!!😟
Thanks,
Philip
