Displaylink problems with Vaio pro 11

[JamesH]

Hi,

Are you using Windows 8.1? That may explain the scaling issue you are seeing.

Regrading the original issue reported here (flickering + freezes), this is fixed in the next release.

Thanks,
James

No, I am using Win 8, not 8.1.

I have updated my Intel Graphics drivers today and that did not help either.

James - when do you expect this release to come out - I am running Windows 8 Pro on a Vaio 11 Pro and using a Targus hub. The freezing of the additional monitors and blacking out, also the loss of connectivity, albeit for around 30 seconds is frustrating to say the least.

Hi,

The next release will be out in time for the release of Windows 8.1 later this month.

Thanks,

Thanks mate & I assume this will have the fix you alluded to?

The USB makes a connect sound every few seconds and the monitor powers up but never displays an output from the laptop.
upon examining the event I see multiple errors as follows:
'The display link manager terminated unexpectedly'
Event ID 7031

Hi,

Yes the next release will have a fix for this issue.

To those that have posted recently please check you have both ends of the Y cable attached.

Thanks,
James

Hi James,

I am having the same issue on a Dell XPS 12 Haswell... with both cables connected and the latest drivers for chipset and displaylink. Do you have a release date for the fix???

V7.4 M2 is now released for you to try.

Still on Win 8, have installed after using the cleaner as well to make sure nothing "hanging around" - have seen a couple of screen blanks, but they were very quick. So, possibly almost there.
