    Hello,

    I am new to the community. I have recently purchased a Dell dock (WD15) and updated all the drivers for both XPS 15 and WD15. I cannot get the second monitor to display via HDMI or display port. Anyone have this setup and been successful?

    My Setup is XPS 15 9550, Dell dock WD15, Monitor Dell U241

    I just got the same setup with 2x U2412M monitors. I can get two monitors working with mdp -> DVI on one and HDMI -> DVI on the other.

    The WD15 has the cable on its left side and the XPS 15 9550 also has the USB-C port on the left side.
    The cable is long enough to make the looped connection but it is awkward and bad design.
