Symptoms

This article contains information about USB-C monitors not showing video correctly when connected to an Inspiron 7500, 7501 or Vostro 7500 system.

DisplayPort 1.2 Support

Inspiron 7500, 7500, and Vostro 7500 systems only support the DisplayPort (DP) 1.2 specification through the USB-C port. If you connect a DP 1.4 monitor, it may not display video correctly and cause the system to hang.
