By the way, I did save the work around instructions that you have now deleted.

Do explain what the problem is that prevents you from making some sort of arrangement for Windows Server 2008 x64 users to get a working driver for DisplayLink.

I've now been waiting about five months!!!!

Now I can't even use one added monitor. Having removed all references to ASUS EZlink and DisplayLink (except for things hidden in the registry), when I try to attach my ASUS VW223B, it looks only for a 5.2 driver, which of, course is not allowed to run. I even tried to masquerade a 4.6 driver to be a 5.2 driver, but that didn't fool it. (There is no mention of displaylink in "program files", and I am prevented from removing those left in SYSTEM32.)

I am considering sending posts to various places, such as CNET, informing readers of my experience with DisplayLink, ASUS, and Diamond, hoping that such negative publicity might have some sort of positive impact on you.
