I'm currently trying the R8.1 Alpha driver (http://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=64916), but that doesn't seem to improve the situation.
Hi Martin,
The drawing issue is not performance related. It is that we don't get screen updates so we have nothing to display. Microsoft is working on this as flagged in that thread.
The issue is more obvious when using more than 3 displays and that's why they missed it... and that's because we make it easy to add many displays that the issue is uncovered through using products using DisplayLink technology.

There are also improvements to be done on performance though, we do agree fully.

Kind regards,
Alban
