USB 3.0 monitor (AOC e1659Fwu) rapidly connects and disconnects, please help!
I recently purchased an AOC e1659Fwu USB monitor (two actually, because I returned the first for the same problem with the second) and have been unable to connect it to my computer. When I plug the monitor in, “AOC” shows on the second monitor briefly, before disappearing. The screen then remains blank, though it occasionally is a ‘powered’ black, while my laptop repeatedly makes connect and disconnect noises. I have a video of the problem, but this forum won't let me attach it.
I have the most recent driver from DisplayLink’s website, Windows 10 operating system, and am using an HP Spectre x360 with the i7 processor. I attempted to use a different USB 3.0 cord, have the latest BIOS for my system, and also tried to disable the USB suspend option per the Displaylink troubleshooting website. For reference I use the older model AOC e1649Fwu on a daily basis without any issues. It plugs in and connects perfectly fine, so I am assuming it is something about the driver’s connectivity with the e1659Fwu. Please help, I am a law student in the middle of exams and it would be a huge aid to have this monitor functioning soon. Thank you, |

Same issue
I have the exact same problem with the 17 inch version of this monitor E1759FWU. Please let me know if you are able to find a solution. I'm on windows 10 as well. If I have the display properties window open I can see the second display appear and then disappear a few seconds later.

That's a power issue then.
It can't be a driver if there's no device in Device Manager. Can you try the USB Y-Cable and plug the other USB male in a USB phone/tablet charger to see if the monitor stays up instead of restarting? I think what you are experiencing is a brownout problem.

I actually tried that. I plugged the Y cable in with a second usb port on my laptop as well as using a brick and plugging it directly into the wall.

I tried connecting the other USB port to an outlet but it does not work. The monitor still rapidly connects and disconnects.
I have also tried using a regular USB 3.0 cable. I don't really see why my laptop would not give the e1659Fwu enough power when it has more than enough to run the previous model. Also, I am not trying to use both at the same time. This happens when I have only one extra monitor attached. |
