Yes, when you have "notebook monitor off" the graphics card settings are not accessible. Is there anything in particular that you are trying to access graphics card setting wise?

Not really trying to access anything in particular as everything is fine. But if I wanted to I can't with this this current settings via my machine ("Do nothing when lid closed") and Plugable ("notebook monitor off") . Can you tell me me what settings to have so that I may access my card while on my USB connected monitor? Or do I have to change these settings while still connected on Plugable, but have the laptop monitor set as main monitor?

Regarding the Check for updates - I stand corrected - this is still available on certain packages. The message you are seeing is telling you that you can't connect to the Windows Update server. Are you able to run Windows Update on your PC with the dock disconnected?

Yes, Windows Update works fine connected to with dock connected. I see nothing in firewall blocking Displaylink either. the message given is "Cannot Update Displaylink Software - Unable to Connect to Microsoft Update Server"

Thanks,
