Windows 10 + Display Link Text Blurry - Page 2

rhawk · 09-08-2015, 02:37 PM

My hdmi monitor is almost not usable now. It worked perfectly under Windows 8.1. I updated to 10 and installed your new driver and one of the 2 external monitors has horrible text now.
I notice that the screen resolution screen will not show the monitor into on it either BUT advanced properties does show the monitor info right.

I was reading other problems in the form and this particular message helped me a lot...

1. Go to display properties in windows.
2. Go to advanced properties and select the display with the incorrect resolution
3. Go to display adapter properties and 'list all modes'
4. Manually select the correct resolution and click 'apply'.

For whatever reason the displaylink does not select the right mode when you select the resolution in the display setting panel...it scales the default mode. ....

This lead me to realize that the monitor was set to 50 Hertz refresh, but the display adapter to 60 Hertz. When I made them both 60 Hertz it greatly improved the display. I suggest the other two people on this message check the settings for that as well.

Thanks for the info, sadly I only have one setting for this resolution, 60Herts. And interestingly enough, my other identical monitor that is running a direct connection to my laptop is showing as 60Hertz. So I don't think this one is my issue.

Any updates on my issue here?

I've been away for a month, have just installed the latest version of the drivers and still no change in quality on the USB monitor...
