does it work with winstar usb display adapter and windows server 2008?

observe24 · 01-20-2011, 09:24 AM

Dear Support Team,

I have bought the following device here in Germany:
Winstar USB 2.0 UGA Multi-Display-Adapter / Model: WS-UG17D1 S/N:WS000B00010 made in China.

With a displaylink driver Rev 5.5 which does not support Windows Server Editions.
But I need to run this device with a Windows Server 2008.

My question is whether the driver 5.6 Beta Software supports the above named winstar model and installation on windows server editions (in my case a Windows Server 2008 32-bit version)

would be great if somebody could give a response on my request ;o)

Thanks in advance & best regards from Germany
Peter

Windows Server 2008 is currently unsupported by the current beta driver however it will be supported in the next release which should be available in March.
