All external monitor issues

My new setup...40" 4K 60Hz running off the Surface Dock via HDMI 2.0....very awesome

That's pretty cool! Make me thing I should have gone one large monitor rather than two smaller ones.

Some mornings I have 2 working external monitors, some I don't... Today is a one monitor morning

OK. Found some pretty interesting things...

You are awesome. Seriously. I've just bought an Acer 34" ultrawide monitor and, for whatever crazy reason, it killed my network connection! I changed it to DP1.1 and the problem has gone away. Thanks!

I've posted in another thread.. But.. Since installing the Anniversary Update, my dual external monitors are working.. I've been on and off the dock, in a out of sleep and always get my 2 external monitors back.

My Surface no longer detects or connects to external monitors since the update.

Which update? AU? Or Patch Tuesday?

If it was a KB Update, uninstall it, reboot and test again...

Also, more info would be helpful such as Monitor Brand/Model, etc.

My experience:

Have had that problem intermittently off and on through multiple builds and patches. Have you tired removing the video driver and rebooting, letting it pick it up again?

I did just that prior to my post.

Me too. Running an eMachines monitor attached through a Toshiba Dynadock U hub.
