Well, it is the card my laptop came with, so not really sure who that is. May have to find docs on this.

That or a virus
Actually I am leaning that way. My laptop runs fine as a laptop but if I plug it into the docking station things start going to shit. I guess the first thing I should do is see if it happens when I plug the second monitor directly into the laptop, and bypassing the dock.

Will do that tomorrow I guess.
