until i reboot. Then i loose the surround settings on my monitors and the nvidia control panel will not let me span displays until the displaylink driver agent is closed. This cannot be closed from the task manager as 'access is denied'
I have to turn off my USB monitor, reboot, setup surround, then turn on the USB monitor and it works.....until i reboot again and have to do the same faffing about.:mad:

The version displaylink software 7.1 M1 is compatible with the new nvidia 314.07 driver?

Seems to work fine for me. Running a GT40M LE w/ HP 3005PR connected to Auria EQ276W running 2560 x 1440 @ 60 Hz.

I have come up with an issue that I do not think others have noticed, however, that for me has been present since v7.1 M0 when I acquired both the HP and the Toshiba DL-3900 based devices. Every so often my mouse movements will freeze for briefly a second, and then resume. It has happened both on my laptop w/ a Core i5-3317 w/ the GT640M LE card (Win7) and a desktop with a Core i7 930 and a Radeon HD 6770 (Win8) and both Dl-3900 devices...

Correct. There are some compatibility problems between the 7.1M1 driver and the new Nvidia driver. The one I'm seeing is a problem with Google Chrome. I'm not sure if it's specific to the nvidia driver or just the displaylink driver.

The short-term fix is adding "--no-sandbox" as an extension to chrome's target path.

Can anyone recommend a USB dock that doesn't constantly have driver conflicts? Or is that like finding a unicorn? Are there any that don't use displaylink? At first I thought the only driver issues I had was with video games. DL seemed to work fine for every day use. I used old drivers, and I could even play XCOM on my external monitor. But when displaylink fixes one problem, it causes others. Upgrading to the latest Nvidia drivers so I can play the latest games resulted in having to upgrade to the newest DL software. And that resulted in chrome being unable to load pages. I just wish things were more plug 'n play... I recognize that my attitude about it is shit, but I didn't imagine myself spending an hour a month tracking down the fixes to all of the displaylink-associated issues before giving up and going back to older drivers.

I'm absolutely ready to track this expensive docking station to find something that's lower maintenance.
