Dual monitors cycling on and off
I'm trying to figure out what the hell is going on with my monitors. I am running a HP 8560W laptop hooked up to a docking station that has dual video outputs. I had dual AOC monitors hooked up with DVI cables before and they worked just fine. I upgraded to dual HP 27ea monitors hooked up with a dvi to HDMI cable and they keep cycling on and off when they are both turned on. Windows recognizes both monitors and if I only power one on, it doesn't cycle on/off. But as soon as I turn the other one on, they both cycle on/off. It doesn't seem like they are disconnecting from the computer, but instead just turning on and off. Almost like on is causing interference to the other one.
I just don't understand whats going on. I have ordered display port to HDMI cable to see if that might be the problem but I don't think it is.
