Aero disabled, displaylink display corruption

boz · 08-31-2011, 11:01 AM

Hi there

With aero disabled, many windows do not render nor resize correctly; the problem goes away when enabling aero, but aero is not desirable for me. Additionally, when remotely connecting to the machine in question (windows RDP) the displaylink driver process is restarted on the target machine. The RDP window is blank, i.e the login screen cannot be seen. If I remove the adaptor from the target machine, I can RDP successfully. Please advise.
Thanks

edit: I'm using windows 7 enterprise 64-bit; triple extended display (laptop screen + 2 monitors). Using the latest driver (5.6.31870)

Unfortunately that link doesn't help since I'm using windows 7 64 bit, and the credentials are entered into a pop up dialog box, and not in the RDP window. The RDP windows comes up after the login box, which is local, and not on the target machine.
Thanks

There are known issues with basic mode that are currently being worked on. See this thread:
