HP ENVY x360 - 15-aq101na
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Does anyone have any idea why I am not able to connect my Envy x360 HP laptop to an external monitor through the USB-C port?

 

On the product spec page it says the USB Type C port is a "USB 3.1 Type-C™ Gen 1". 

The external monitor I was trying to connect to has a "USB Type-C upstream port (Alternate mode with DisplayPort 1.4, Power Delivery up to 65 W)". 

 

Much appreciated.

It ONLY has 1 USB 3.1 Type-C™ Gen 1 port which does NOT support Alt mode nor Power Delivery. You can NOT use it to

  • Charge your machine,
  • Connect to an external monitor with/without hub/dock/adapter

If you wish to connect 2 external monitors (only), you can use

  • Monitor 1: HDMI direct cable,
  • Monitor 2: Using a Displaylink Certified USB-A to HDMI adapter such as

                                     USB to HDMI Adapter
