Please do that before starting any application using the better GPU. The issue is when the application starts, it can't list displays properly.
If you get it working like that, then I'm confident it's the same thing.
Lid open is also advisable to prevent computer getting hot and then losing performance because everything gets throttled.
Kind regards,

Close my laptop lid while connected to my docking station? What kind of monster do you think I am?!?!
I do always keep my lid open when plugged in and keep it on a pad with cooling fans. That screen is the perfect place for my Outlook window haha
I'll have to check when I'm back home to see if my laptop screen is identified as the main display. I'm able to work but barely. Last night, I was trying to touch up a raw photo in Photoshop and used the spot removal tool. My computer didn't like that and crashed both image editors I had open at the time. Sigh... Normally I'd be able to do this with zero problems.
ALL of my problems started after the windows update. I know this because I remember thinking "oh weird, the locked screen now blurs out" before logging in and when I went to open Photoshop and After Effects...the problems began.
Thank you again for this info. This is the first known issue I've found that seems remotely related to what i'm experiencing.
