Apologies for the copy of a post to the laptop forum, but it may be more relevant here.
I've got a work MS Surface Laptop (I think it's a Surface 2) which I connect to 2 monitors:
I've tried daisychaining the Benq monitor from the Philips in the past with no success (via HDMI or displayport on the Philips - not sure which). But it probably wasn't a thorough try as the monitor worked via mini-displayport.
I think the Philips will now connect via the USB-C on the MS Surface 5, not via the Surface Connect Port.
Can anyone advise on how to connect the Benq? Have I missed something re. daisychaining from the Philips, or is there a way of connecting the Bemq from the USB-A on the laptop?
I've got a work MS Surface Laptop (I think it's a Surface 2) which I connect to 2 monitors:
- Philips Brilliance S272B, via the magnetic surface adapter port and dock, then a USB-C to the monitor. This monitor then acts as a hub to other peripherals including printer, network connection etc.
- Benq GL2460 from the mini-displayport via an adaptor to the DVI-D on the monitor.
