HP 250 G8 Notebook PC will connect and display video with with G2 dock but not G5.
Both are using display port cables from the dock to the monitors.
When connecting the G5 I get this error on my laptop and nothing on my screen:
I've updated the drivers for the G5.
I know the G5 and cables are good because I can connect fine to my other laptop.
Laptop is running Win10.
Any ideas?
