Windows 8, Lenvo USB 3.0 dock = lag + fuzzy image

[henrybakker01]

Still having lags and a disappearing mouse cursor with my HP Envy X2 en HP 3005PR USB Port Replicator.

Tried the latest version available on the site, and the latest Beta-version mentioned in this post. No difference.

Besides, if I only use the external screen and disconnect the port replicator my Envy gets an BSOD. First the display driver isn't responding anymore en than a BSOD occures.

Same setup as before - I've been through the beta drivers posted here as well as the updated drivers Lenovo released on their site on the 5/22ish. Still really bad.

Now all I have to do is be editing a Word document and if I type quickly (which I do usually), the fuzziness takes over the screen - pretty much impossible to deal with constantly like this and stay productive.

There must be a fix coming for this? I can help with repros, logs, etc, if someone wants. I am more than happy to contribute to the solution as I have a 100% consistent repro in many common day to day scenarios.

I have upgraded all drivers and BIOS. I'm using the new driver WIM posted and changed power settings to high performance.

Yep.. still laggy and slow I am afraid. I am on high performance power plan, beta build, Win 8 Ent.. heck I tried every single driver they have listed.

I hope you can fix it.

Still having issues. Fuzziness is gone w/ latest drivers, but mouse still freezes all the time. Ugh so frustrating. It's been months.

Bizarre. I'm using a Twist (low-rent X1 ), Win 8, with a Plugable dock -- and I'm still living large.

Are you using a wireless mouse? If so, try sticking the receiver on an USB extension cable. That made all the difference for me (still don't quite know why, as the receiver was plugged into a presumably interference-free 2.0 port).

I don't know much about the Lenovo dock, other than that the reviews on Amazon scared me enough to scoop the Plugable instead. Given that they ultimately all use the same driver set, I'd be surprised if Lenovo could have botched it up that badly, but then again...

This is why your wireless mouse works now: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/...nce-paper.html

(sidenote: how the hell did they agree to this protocol with that large of a glaring bug)

I was using a wireless mouse, but stopped months ago because of that interference nonsense. I'm now using a wired one.

my mouse lags and jumps across the screen instead of moving smoothly. I have to choose to either use the mouse and dual monitors and suffer, or try to get my work done on a 14" screen. ugh. This is been going on too long.
