dell xps + windows 8.1 prof - no USB devices after upgrade
Hi,
I had a dock D3000 with Windows 8.0, it worked (with problems, but worked) till I've upgraded to 8.1 (without upgrading Displaylink). It stopped to work at all. Then I did uninstall of Displaylink, cleaning, installed 7.5, rebooted many times. After plugin the cable, computer seems to see "something" as it creates buzz after plugin/plugoff, but nothing is visible in device manager. Dock is powered, ethernet is blinking. In C:\Windows\System32\Drivers I can't see any displaylink drivers. Please see my log attached. I'd appreciate for your help. |

Of course I did
but to be sure did it once again. Installation done, nothing happens after connecting the dock. Last edited by brybak; 01-14-2014 at 08:09 AM. |

Hi,
Did you try all the steps (1-5) that I mentioned? You'll need to disconnect your dock, then uninstall the Displaylink software, then run the Cleaner Tool, then reboot, then install DisplayLink software v7.5 M0 and then finally reconnect your dock. This is also mentioned here in the last paragraph: http://www.displaylink.com/support/ticket.php?id=346 Let me know how you get on. Thanks, James |

Hi,
When you connect the dock can you check if a Generic USB Hub / Generic USB Superspeed Hub appears in Device Manager under Universal Serial Bus controllers? Conversely does the Generic USB Hub / Generic USB Superspeed Hub disappear if you disconnect the dock? Thanks, James |

Hi,
This appears to be a hardware failure - you should ask your supplier for a replacement. Thanks, James |

It seems, windows upgrade is causing hardware failure?! Why are other USB devices working seemlessly? Why this dock is fine with my another laptop with Windows 7 Prof? Is it joke?

So to clarify the current issue is that every time you connect the dock to your other laptop it works and and every time you connect it to your XPS only the dock's USB hub appears? Regards, James |
