Hardware Support List?

Roland · 11-21-2012, 05:50 AM

I've recently just purchased a DisplayLink USB to DVI adapter and I have to say; It's great when it works.

What I'm after though, is a list of known hardware (Graphics cards, to be specific) that is fully compatible with the DisplayLink device and software.

When I first got the device I tested it on a number of machines with different graphical solutions. But, one of the machines, with a Nvidia Quadro FX 560, could not boot to the desktop because of a BSOD. The BSOD code was pointing towards a graphical issue. So I'm amusing that particular card and driver are not fully compatible with the DisplayLink software. (Yes, everything was updated)

I know the DisplayLink manual states that all Nvidia and ATi cards are supported, but I don't believe this is true.

I will be purchasing another machine shortly and wanted make sure that it's graphics card will work happily with the DisplayLink device.

So, does DisplayLink have a hardware support list? It would be great if a rep could answer, it would be greatly appreciated.

Feel free to post your own hardware that you've gotten your adapter to work on.
