TP Dock I - Display Problems (AD/VC Adapter)
Applicable to: World-Wide
Display Problems (AD/VC Adapter):
The IBM ThinkPad Analog-to-Digital Converter Adapter (AD/VC adapter) is one of the options for the Dock I. With the IBM PS/2*  ActionMedia II Display Adapter (ActionMedia II adapter), the AD/VC adapter enables the computer to run multimedia
applications.
When the AD/VC adapter is installed in the Dock I, and a display problem occurs, before you start to isolate any problem; switch off the computer, remove the Dock I from the computer, and check that the computer works correctly.
Information is now displayed on the LCD screen using the computer's video control function, not the AD/VC adapter. If the computer works correctly, make sure that the ActionMedia II Adapter is installed in the 16-bit AT bus connector of the Dock I. Then reinstall the computer onto the Dock I. If there is still a problem, go to 'Display Symptoms (AD/VC Adapter)—.
The following figure shows the how to remove the AD/VC adapter from the Dock I.
