Yes, Docking stations are not Operating System dependent. They simply extend the ports that are available on the notebook.

No sorry, the 4540 ProBook is not on the compatible list for this docking station.

The docking station I bought from Amazon was the wrong one. It did not specify my Elite book 8560p The pins did not match up. You will have to check before you order to make sure that your models you have here are listed then order. I ordered another out of HP and just threw the one away from Amazon. It was far cheaper to eat the mistake than pay the restocking fee and shipping....

Absolutely not. This docking unit derives power through the USB 3.0 port of your laptop and will work only through this connection.

I believe it will. Check your laptops, if they are the same (about 1 1/2 - 2 in) port, this is the docking station you will need.

No, they are both powered by independent adapters. The docking station does not power the laptop.

Some of it will depend on your specific laptop and video card capabilities. We have successfully used this docking station to connect an HP 8770w with a Quadro K3000M video card to have two external monitors in addition to the laptop display. You will need to run one external monitor via the VGA connection in the back of the docking station, and the second monitor will need to be connected using the DisplayPort connection on the docking station and a DP-to-VGA adapter (it will not work using a DP-to-HDMI adaptor, or using the DVI connection on the back of the docking station).

If it is not listed I would say no; unfortunately H/P does not standardize their docking stations like Dell. In my office of a dozen people there are probably half a dozen different H/P docking stations. Creates an issue when you need to share desks. The docking station I purchase from Amazon ended up not fitting my laptop. As you probably noticed H/P docking stations are much more expensive than the Dell docking station.

Yes, I bought two of these docking stations for my HP Folio 9480m, and they work perfectly. I had the same question at the time of my purchase; I rolled the dice and got lucky. :o) Hope this helps.

Yes, the docking station has it's own Power Port, works beautifully. One recommendation, I have a couple of these stations and find that I still use the one that has a CD/DVD reader burner the most. Pay the extra get the CD/DVD upgrade. Good luck!

I made the mistake of purchasing a new Dock, only to find out the cord was the problem. HP does not sell the cord. I have yet to find one on line.

Hi Patricia - Yes it should work. I had the same issue with a laptop docking station. I use this to add a second VGA monitor and it works great!

Yes, I am using a Dell Precision M4700 and it works with this docking station.

Not sure to be honest. It is a pretty much generic dock station with a 25pin connector. I have an HP Pavillion i7 and it has been working great for more than a year. Nice to have extra USB plugs. I use a very large monitor, which is the main reason I bought this. I'm running Windows 8.1 and no issues there either. For the price I think it is a great deal; makes portability much easier.

no, the docking station is for 30 pin connectors (pre-5th). you'd need to buy an adapter.

Hi Web, does your HP Pavillion have a USB port/slot available? if so, it will work perfectly.
