I've got an apple thunderbolt or mini display to VGA adaptor that I use sometimes on a big screan, I find I have to restart the mac book air I have if I try to plug the adaptor in to windows while it's going, for some reason it doesn't just plug and play, it does with Mac OSX but not windows and that's on my windows 10 side.
But I have all the correct bootcamp drivers installed so possible I've missed something alogn the way. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Scott Davert Sent: Wednesday, 16 November 2016 10:46 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Problem with Owc Thunderbolt dock under Windows 7 with bootcamp So Windows 10 it is then.
