x260 and Microsoft's Wireless Display Adapter (P3Q-00020)

#1 Post by efrant » Tue Dec 13, 2016 10:23 am

I just ordered an x260, and it should arrive this week. Was just wondering if anyone knows if Microsoft's Wireless Display Adapter works with the x260 on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit? Thanks.

Think your question is, "Did anyone try to use this Microsoft's Wireless Display Adapter (P3Q-00020) and Thinkpad X260?"

It's certified to work with Microsoft Windows, so I imagine it would work...

1. Specifications states it works best with Windows 10 computers.
If you are using Windows 7 or 8, you may run into manufacturer specific issues, according to Microsoft.

2. Here is a long list for troubleshooting potential issues with this:

Please do share your experience with us!
We also would be interested to see if this works well with Thinkpads (X1 Carbon Gen3, X1 Carbon Gen 4).

The X1 Carbon is the only Lenovo listed as compatible on Microsoft's website, so I would imagine it works: https://www.microsoft.com/accessories/e ... patibility

In any case, since no one knows if it works with the x260 or not, I'll buy one of the adapters tomorrow, try it out, and report back.

Just bought the adapter, and I can confirm it works just fine with the x260 running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.
