Symptom:
There is lag when I run some applications on my secondary monitor (laptop docked in station). For example, when I type text in a dialog, the text is not showing up on monitor immediately. The lag is repeatable.
The lag can be 10 seconds long and happens for multiple applications including Microsoft Lync. The lag disappear immediately if I switch application back and forth.
My settings:
HP ZBook 14
Intel i7-4600U CPU @2.1GHz @2.70GHz
Memory: 16GB
Secondary Monitor: LG LA2405wg; connected to docking station via DisplayPort
OS: Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit
Primary Video Card: Intel HD Graphics
Secondary Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 8500M/8700M
We also know that:
1. there is no lag when laptop built-in monitor is the only monitor
2. there IS lag when secondary monitor is the only monitor (laptop monitor disabled)
I have tried the following:
1. Upgrade BIOS firmware
2. Enable/disable Hybrid Display Mode in BIOS
3. Resize video memory to 512MB
4. Uninstall/reinstall device drivers for video card / chipsets
5. Uninstall/reinstall AMD Catalyst Control Center
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Haining
