Product: HP 840 G7 With HSA-B005DS dock
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have 2 monitors working from the HP USB-C universal dock, with the third using the HDMI port on the 840 G7 laptop. I would like to close the laptop, but when I do, it goes to sleep. if I leave it open, it acts as a 4th screen, which I don't need. Is there a setting I can change so I can leave the laptop closed, and still run the 3 monitors? i have a different Dock at the office that allows me to do this with the same Laptop. Please help...

Please allow the monitor on HDMI port (of machine, not the dock) as main display. System will automatically use notebook screen as main display when you disconnect monitors.

 

Regards.
