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

Setting Up 3 Monitors on a Dell

Hi pmuldoon,

Thank you for posting your concern on Microsoft Community Forums.

You need to have a Port replicator depending on the model. Because some monitors supports 3 monitors and some needs to have port replicator to connect 3 monitors. However, I suggest you to follow the below steps, and check if that
helps.

Method 1: Update drivers in Windows 10

I also suggest you to update the drivers, follow this article on

Update drivers in Windows 10, and check if that helps.

Method 2: Follow the Dell article on Multiple monitors.

I suggest you to follow the Dell article on Multiple monitors, follow the article on

3 monitors won't display in settings windows 10

Thanks for trying but this was not the problem. I have it solved. I had a hdmi splitter for the 2 external monitors, which was suggested by Staples. An hdmi splitter is stupid because whatever is on 1 monitor is on the 2nd monitor, DUH, it's a splitter.
And this is why in "Display Settings" only my laptop monitor & 1 monitor was shown. Solved by returning the hdmi splitter, plugging in 1 monitor directly to my laptop hdmi socket and getting a usb to hdmi adapter which plugs into my laptop usb socket & my
2nd monitor plugs into the hdmi side of the adapter. Instantly all 3 monitors were shown in "Display Settings".
