Default Monitor keeps going off

Got a Lenovo T440 on a pro docking station.

Connected two Dell monitors (identical) one on VGA and one on DVI.

Same setup as I have at work, only at home the VGA screen keeps going off. I have to change a setting (refresh rate for example) and it comes back on for a while.

Any ideas?

Do you get the 'device disconnection' sound in Windows when it does it? If so, it's a known issue which it seems an uprated power supply and a firmware update seems to fix.

There's some other things to try here too:
