I just purchased a new HP Omen Laptop with Thunderbolt 4. It came with Windows 11, but I have installed Windows 10 on this laptop and it works perfectly with my Sonnet Echo Express SE IIIe expansion box and AJA Corvid 88 card. Unfortunately, it will not connect to any of my older Thunderbolt 2 devices (AJA IO 4K, Decklink UltraStudio Mini Recorder or older Sonnet expansioon box) using an Apple or StarTech TB2 to TB3 adapter. All of these devices work correctly with 3 other Thunderbolt 3 laptops, but not the newer TB4 Laptop. Any thoughts appreciated.
