DisplayLink devices not working with Haswell ultrabooks?

[lferrao]

After testing my replicator with a myriad of laptops, including windows 7/8/8.1, windows update drivers, display link drivers, USB 2.0 ports, USB 3.0 ports, every combination works, except for Haswell. Please list your laptop, displaylink device and status:

Laptop: Sony Vaio Pro 13
DisplayLink: Fujitsu PR08 USB 3.0 Port Replicator
Status: Unusable, dock resets every few minutes, losing both monitor and RJ45 connections

Hi,

This might be fixed in the next release due out next month.

Does this happen on all the notebooks USB 3.0 ports?

Thanks,
James

Yes, all of the USB ports, it still happens even if i don't use the extra monitor (and only USB + LAN)

If anyone is interested, after downgrading to Windows 7 and installing Intel's USB 3.0 extensible host for windows 7 (it does not exist for windows 8), everything works fine. I hope you release this driver soon so we can use Win 8.1 UPDATE: Only worked during the first test, after reboot, it never worked again

Hi, I have a Vaio Duo 13 which mounts a Haswell CPU (i5-4200) connected to a DisplayLink port replicator of StarTech and everything works (except for auto-negotiation of speed of the ethernet port)
