      Have you tried booting at home with it not docked?

        Maybe it flexes weird when not in the dock? I've seen a lot of HP laptops with bad solder joints on the BGA/PGA for chips and they have odd issues when that happens.

          Is this a work laptop? put in a case with HP and be done with it, sounds like a hardware issue of some sort.

            I'm guessing you're having a hardware profile problem. You have all those dozens of extra monitors running when you are at home, the drivers are trying to load, but the hardware is missing.

            In the XP days we'd use hardware profiles to solve this type of problem, I'm not sure this still exists for Windows 8.1

                    True. I'll have to check that out.

                        I forgot to check it last night. It worked on the second try today here. Weird.
