![]() So you have to wait and guess when it is ready and then blindly enter the password. If you have the laptop in the Dell docking station in a Dell monitor stand using the DVI ports you will never see the password screen. Very strange.Īgain it will not show up on the external monitor if you are using the laptop vga port or the dvi ports of the docking station. Also, it will not show up if using HDMI either. The only way to see it is to disable optimus, and use the docking station's vga port or display port. What this means is that, should you set up a bios password for the startup or HDD, the screen to enter it during startup will not show up on the external monitor. You do not see anything on the external monitor until Windows starts up and loads the nvidia driver. There is no bios display on the external monitor when my E6530 is plugged into the laptops VGA port or the docking station's dvi ports. I rarely write reviews, which I feel bad about as I have benefited from many many reviews.Īfter my recent experience with Dell, I feel compelled to warn buyers about a very serious design flaw, which I am told is common to all the current latitudes.
