Catalyst 15.200.1046.0 + 7.8M0 = error
 

Gretings. I own a targus acp71usz docking station , and I'm experiencing problems with the new catalyst drivers. My setup is the following

Samsung NP770s5e Notebook (Radeon + Intel integrated)
Radeon R9 M200x (formerly 8870M DDR5 2GB). Driver 15.200.1046.0
Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics, driver 10.18.10.4226
Targus acp71usz docking station
Displaylink driver: 7.8M0 (also tryed with 7.7m3 and 7.7m4).

Synthoms: I was working well with radeon 14.4 drivers, then the AMD software told me that a new driver was avaliable. At the time I was working with 7.7m3 or 7.7m4, cant tell.

Installed AMD 15.2 drivers => reboot => displaylink software tells me that it wont work, because the display driver im using uses a newer version of the microsoft graphics driver, and recomends me to visit displaylink.com/software to see if a newer version of displaylink driver is available.

Installed 7.8M0, the system goes to a BSOD, after reboot I find the following info on the windows manager

I've unistalled/installed many times the different displaylink drivers, without luck. I've managed to avoid the BSOD if I install 7.8M0 without the targus docking station connected. When the displaylink driver installer asks for me to connect the dockng station, I do exactly that, but windows isn't capable of installing the drivers correctly anyway.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Updating with the logs

Hello faeterov,
can I ask you to try 7.9RC, which can be downloaded here: http://support.displaylink.com/knowl...rticles/525125
and let us know about the results?

BR,

I have tried the Display link version 7.9 and It works with the new AMD drivers 15.2.
I Got BSOD when I installed DLV 7.9 on my machine with AMD drivers already installed. I uninstalled Both drivers. Then reinstalled it and it worked.
So I suggest uninstalling the 7.8 first.

First I've tryed to go back to where I was before the update to the 15.x catalyst drivers.

Installed AMD 14.100.0.0 drivers and Intel 9.17.10.2693, then installed 7.8....

Displays wont work, alltought ethernet and usb ports do work.

I uploaded the log from the debug tool. Will try updating everything and then installing 7.9 as your sugestion.

Installed 7.9 RC, everything seems to run normal now. Will update during the day time

One thing I noticed is that now I can have my laptop screen and 2 external screens running at the same time. I wasn't able to do that on 7.7 or previous releases.

One thing I keep seeing is "igfxext module stoppd working".

Seems its related to displaylink software

I can validate that using the beta version of DisplayLink and the Newest AMD driver set does work.

What I did was unplug the DisplayLink device
Ran the installer
When it came and stated to close out certain processes, i did a task manager, and ended task on those specific items.
finished installation
rebooted
plugged in DisplayLink device
Drivers detected, and everything started working.
