Windows 8 FLASHING Screen
Hi, I have using the M01061 Displaylink device with the latest V7 software for Windows 8. Upon plugging in the device, all I get is a rapid flashing screen and no other input available to use and no light on the device.
I previously had the device working on Windows 7. I did an inplace upgrade and the device worked until I upgraded to the latest version of the displaylink software. Thinking my OS install was corrupt, I reinstalled a fresh copy of Win8 and the problem is still occurring. I have tried everything, is anyone able to help? I have attached support logs to this thread Thanks |

This could be due to the NVIDIA drivers. Could you try downgrading the NVIDIA drivers, or disabling the NVIDIA GPU, so it is just using the Intel GPU and see if this solves the issue?

It worked!!! When are you going to fix it??
Hi,
I had the same problem, and rolling back the nvidia driver to a version released in june solved the problem. When are you going to support the new nvidia driver? /Frode |

And then it failed again
Hi,
Due to company policy, automatic updates have to be enabled, so after a while...windows updated the nvidia driver and the problem returned. |

NVIDIA released this just before we were releasing our Win 8 driver... so left us no time to fix it.
We hope to fix this in the next Windows 8 release later this month. Wim |
