This article will provide you with the five best possible methods for resolving this issue.

How to fix the VGA monitor if it is not working on docking station?

1. Update the graphics driver

2. Reconnect the wires

When a system or other peripherals such as a mouse or keyboard fail to function, it may indicate that the cable used to link them to the system is either damaged or weakly attached. Disclaimer: this program needs to be upgraded from the free version in order to perform some specific actions. As a result, we request our users to inspect the cables for damage and reconnect them after unplugging them from the system. If any of the wires are broken or damaged, unfortunately, you will need to replace them before trying again.

3. Update the Windows system

4. Rollback a problematic update

We usually recommend our readers to keep their systems updated at all times, but sometimes, a new patch can do more harm than good. SPONSORED In this case, if the monitors stopped working on the docking station after a system update, it’s better to uninstall that update as shown in te solution above.

5. Physical damages

If there are any internal faults in the device or peripherals such as the keyboard, mouse, or monitors, this might be the reason why you are facing such issues with the system and device. We recommend connecting the VGA monitor to another system via the docking station and seeing if this works. If it still does not function when connected to another system, it is time to replace or repair the VGA monitor and try again.

Is VGA better than HDMI?

HDMI is always a better choice when compared to VGA because VGA still uses the older standard that carries only the video signal and not audio. The HDMI cables offer better performance and are not prone to the interference of other unwanted signals. HDMI is preferred by most gamers for a better experience and performance while playing heavy games. Also, here is the guide to fixing any docking station issues on your Windows system.
