Default Asus Varidrive with Asus Zenbook Touch UX31A Display issue

Hi,

Just received my Asus Varidrive... after connecting it to my Asus Zenbook Touch UX31A everything seems to work (LAN, USB hub, DVD drive) besides the display extension...

With or without the DisplayLink software I downloaded from here http://www.displaylink.com/support/downloads.php, I always get the same image (a sort of chessboard with white and black squares) on my secondary screen (see attached).

I tried to connect my secondary monitor through VGA or HDMI but with the same result...

I'm running Windows 8, updated the BIOS to the latest version available (219) and updated the Intel HD Graphics 4000 drivers to the latest version available on Intel's website (9.18.10.3165).

When firing up the DisplayLink Support Tool and running the System Compatibility Check, everything seems to 'Pass':

Pass: Basic mode support
Pass: Device attached
Pass: Device started correctly
Pass: Graphics driver date
Pass: WEI is above recommended 3
Pass: No Other USB graphics software installed

Any idea, because now I'm getting stuck... Unfortunately, Varidrive support on the Asus website is close to inexistent...

I'm also including the logs of the diagnostic tool.

Any help would be more than welcome.

Thanks.

I am have an identical issue with a UX32VD and the Asus Varidrive. Right down to the checkered display.

I've attached logs and a photo of the checkerboard pattern.

If it matters, this is the second Varidrive I tried. I experienced the same problems with the first one, which ASUS RMA'd for me.

This is the replacement unit.

Thanks James. Can you keep us updated? Asus hasn't been terribly forthcoming with help or information, unfortunately.

Hi,

Asus are now aware of this issue which is that the serial number is not programmed on your docks. As a result the device is coming up in a test mode hence the white and black pattern.

Please return these docks to Asus for a replacement stating that the serial number has not been programmed.

Feel free to quote me if needs be.

Thanks,
James
