Surface Laptop 3 with external monitor

Hi All,

Has anyone come across an issue with an external monitor blacking out while connected to a Surface Laptop 3? I have the laptop connected to a widescreen laptop with the Surface Dock. Both work fine however, once every hour or so the external monitor blacks out and comes back.

I've completed the following:

• Updated laptop drivers and firmware
  • Updated monitor drivers
  • Swapped out monitor

Hi,

Please answer these questions to assist you better.

• What is the make and model of your computer and external monitor?
• Have you installed all pending Windows and driver updates?
• Do you get any error message?

I suggest you to install all pending Windows updates in your PC and also update Display drivers. Follow the steps below.

Step 1: I would suggest you to check and install any latest Windows Updates available.

• Go to Start and then Settings.
• Click on Update and Recovery.
• Check for updates under
  Windows Updates.
• Restart the system and check if the issue is resolved.

Step 2: Please refer to the following Wiki article created by
Andre Da Costa on How to: Install and Update drivers in Windows 10.

Do let us know if you still get random black screen in the external monitor. Thank you.

 

external monitors: 1 of 2 not working after last windows update

Last week I updated windows on my laptop while traveling for business. When I got home one of my external monitors that have been working for years isn't. the one that isn't is a serial monitor with a USB-2 adaptor. The working one has an HDMI connector.
I have downloaded and installed the latest (9/19) update for Display Link. But when I open the video manager it only recognizes one monitor. My Device manager is showing two PNP monitors working and the drivers are up to date.

Display Link Forum suggests this, but I haven't gone there yet as it clearly appears to be a windows issue.

If you find you are having issues after installing or upgrading DisplayLink software, or your Windows installation, please follow these steps to re-install DisplayLink software

1. Disconnect your device. If your device uses a power adapter, disconnect it too.
2. Uninstall DisplayLink software from Windows Control Panel.
3. Download
   DisplayLink End User Windows Cleaner tool and run it.
4. Reboot your computer.
5. Download the latest
   DisplayLink Windows software and install it.
6. Reconnect your device when asked by the installer.
   
7. Reboot your computer.

Any thoughts?
