USB-C Dock G5
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I just bought a USB-C Dock G5 to use with my HP Pavillion laptop.  I am trying to add a LG monitor connecting with HDMI, but nothing displays.  I am not able to force detection in the Display Settings. I have updated the firmware of the Dock and installed the latest Windows updates.  When I plug in the USB-C, Windows gives and error that "Display Connection Might Be Limited".  I tried the troubleshooting steps provided but did not work.  I did not try a new cord since this one is brand new.  Please help.

The specs of your machine is

It ONLY has  1 USB 3.1 Type-C™ Gen 1 (Data Transfer Only, 5 Gb/s signaling rate) port. The HP USB-C G5 dock requires TRUE USB-C port  (not just Data transfer port) or Thunderbold 3 port.
