On XP: Turn Notebook Monitor Off
 

The documentation says that on Win XP the option "Turn notebook monitor off" may disappear. How can i still use that functionality?

Also: The green light indicating that USB devices are usable only comes on after user login into Windows, so that i cannot use USB keyboard instead of notebook keyboard. Any chance to make USB devices available even before user login?

Thx

This option is only available on notebooks, where there is a notebook monitor.

You can set this up manually, by setting the DisplayLink display to be primary and then disabling the other displays.

You can refer to this article:

The login screen should be shown on the USB screen, as our service that controls the USB display starts before login. If your USB keyboard is not working either, it sounds like your USB bus is not available until the user is logged in... which is weird, but not a DisplayLink issue.
