#WINDOWS 7 UNDOCK INSTALL#

I have to restart the system to be accepted or install it again. Does anyone have an idea what to change under BIOS Parallel port settings? By the way, I noticed that most of the time when I start the LPT printer, it's status is still offline and no matter how long I wait it doest get 'ready'. Tryed to find if any of the startup programs are causing this message, but under SafeMode all I got was a message saying that 'VGAsave service, which controls one of the devices on the docking station doesn't support Plug and Play and can't be stopped'!!?!? Then stopped all of them but still sometimes can't hot undock and the message about ieee 1284.4 compatible printer appears. Now if the USB printer is on, I still get the same message, but when I turn it off in most cases the undocking is succesfull, except that sometimes I get another message about ieee 1284.4 compatible printer which is still in use by some program. The docked windows can be moved around in their docked position and can be detached from the main window by simply dragging them outside of the main window (. We then see the 'Starting Windows' screen and when Windows 7 get to the part where the display 'switches' to the Windows Login screen, the laptop display. We then shutdown the laptop, undock and restart. The external display goes off (as it should). Reinstalled all printers - there are one using USB interface and one using Parallel port shared or not, it doest changed the behavior of the system then stopped two HP services - HP Network Devices Support and HP CUE DeviceDiscovery Service (I think that the last service didn't change anything, but the printer/scanner still works fine so.). We've set the laptop to only use the internal screen. I fowolled dr_st's advice and when forced it to eject, I got some message about Printer port logical interface. But as I suspected, the problem wasn't exactly the disabled hibernation procedure.

PFHAAAA, I hate software! pkiff, isn't it useless to use a docking station if you have to remove all the attached devices when you want to undock ! No matter if I use the docking station button or 'undock' from start menu or 'Safely remove.' the results were equal.
