Using docking station s or port replicators with APM-supported ThinkPad
models
On APM-supported ThinkPad models, Windows 2000 does not support dynamic docking or
undocking with docking stations or port replicators. Most of the devices located in the
docking station or port replicator can only be configured when the computer is turned on or
restarted. PC Card, CardBus, and USB devices are exceptions to this restriction. Hot
insertion and removal of these devices in the docking station or port replicator are supported.
The following tables illustrate the type of docking device support on Windows 2000
Professional for APM-supported ThinkPad models:
