Windows 7 Pro - Skylake 530 causing more issues than Ivy Bridge 4000, what's the deal?

My prior work laptop was a Elitebook Folio 9470M with Ivy Bridge 4000 for graphics. I was able to connect to my two slim B9C87UT docking stations just fine.

Station 1 = Dual 1080p, one via DP to DVI, one via VGA to VGA

Station 2 = Single 3440x1440 via DP (Dell UltraSharp U3415W)

Now with my HP EliteBook Folio 1040 G3 with Skylake and 530 graphics, my two stations are screwed up!

Station 1 = Can only get a single monitor to show up via DP to DVI. The VGA one shows up as a 'virtual' VGA connection but it doesn't show up.

Station 2 = Nothing comes up

How can I configure my Folio 1040 so it'll do what the measly graphics 4000 was able to do? Thanks!

Just to be clear, if I connect the 1040 G3 directly to the UltraSharp via the built HDMI connection, it works just fine. It seems like the docking station with it's Display port that doesn't seem to be working. What's strange is that it was working fine though with the older version of graphics 4000. What could be wrong or how should I config this?

Thank you for the report.

 

Please bear in mind that Intel recommends using straight video connectors or cables such Display port to Display port, the usage of video adapters may limit video out functionality.

 

 

I would recommend testing new graphics drivers for your Intel® HD Graphics 530:

Did you test the latest video drivers? Did it work for your computer?
