HP Recommended
Product: HP Probook
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am using a company issued HP Probook with an HP Docking station and HDMI cords hooked to two ACER LCD Screens. I have the exact same set up at my office and at home with all the same equipment. I often leave work and get home and connect my notebook to the docking station only to have an issue with the monitors coming on. (I shut my computer down before i leave the office)  What happens is they turn on.. the windows logo comes up on both screens as if its goning to load and turn on but then they go back to sleep and wont turn on again. I have found a fix to this but i have to do it every time i switch between my work set up and home set up.. I have to force shut the computer down while connected to the docking station and then turn it back on and they turn on just fine. I have to do this every time I switch between the two workstations so i often just refuse to log in from home because its a hassle.

 

What i would love to do.. and what my coworkers seem to be able to do is just lock the computer, go home and dock the notebook and the monitors come on automatically. 

 

Any help or ideas on what to try is appreciated!
