D/Dock not working with Inspiron 8600

I just purchased a used D/Dock Docking station for my Inspiron 8600.
Everything I read says it's compatible. But when I boot up it says "The
attached docking station is not supported on this system". What's going
on? This Dell literature says the D/Dock works with the 8600 (check the
chart on the 2nd page):

Sean,
I can see what you mean that the table says it is supported, but when I
bought a D/Port port replicator a few months back for my I8600 I distinctly
remember that the D/Dock didnt support the I8600. Looks like a typo on that
table to me. Have you called Dell and asked them if it is supported.
