Default Empty screen on DL-165, HP8530W, WinXP 32b, NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M

Hi,

I've go problem with using my USB VGA adapter on HP Eliteboot 8530w, with Windows XP 32bit.

This laptop is equipped with NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M adapter, I use latest NVIDIA drivers (260.99).

All I have is just empty screen on the monitor connected to adapter based on DL-165.

I was trying to use several LCD monitors; IBMs and Dells, with digital and analog connections, always with blank screen. Cables are 100% OK.

I also tried different PC with WXP-32b, and *not equipped* with NVIDIA VGA card - it is just working OK.

I am able to configure the adapter, set the resolution, etc. The "only" problem is just blank screen.

I have the same problem with both lines of DL drivers (latest version from 5.4 and 5.5).

Could you please provide some hints, help or suggestions how can I have this working correctly.

Detailed system info below:

Windows XP 32bit (service pack 3, etc).

This is a known problem with latest Nvidia drivers. The v5.5 M1 driver which has a fix for this issue has been released and put on the DisplayLink website for download on friday. Please uninstall the current driver, install v5.5 M1 and check if the problem continues.

Hi Pawel,
I've tried this version, and unfortunately it still doesn't work on XP.
I've also verified it on Windows 7 - an it works correctly there.
I see black screen on my third monitor, as described before.
What is interesting, monitor doesn't go into sleep mode, resolution seems to be correct but screen is black.

Regards, Pawel
