Hi,

My end target:
- 3 1280x1024 portrait mode displays (2 off a dual headed graphics card, 1 using a Sunweit DL-160 based DisplayLink device).

My problem:
- I can't get the DisplayLink device to run correctly in portrait mode.
- I also can't get it to run anything better than 8-bit color, even though the Windows 7 ScreenResolution/AdvancedSettings/Monitor dialog shows it in 16 or 32 bit color mode.

My system:
- Dell Optiplex 960.
- 32-bit Windows 7, build 7100.
- 3 Dell 17" 1280x1024 monitors, oriented vertically (Portrait rotation).
- Intel Q45 integrated graphics, or PCIex16 NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS.

1st scenario:
- using the Dell's Q45 integrated graphics, with both in portrait:
- rotated or not, the DisplayLink output is always 'compressed' to roughly two-thirds of the screen size. It's only compressed in the vertical direction though.
NOTE: The only way I could get the DisplayLink output to work correctly was to have ALL displays in normal landscape mode. Even then, the DisplayLink was still only 8-bit color.

2nd scenario:
- using the PCIex16 NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS, with both outputs in portrait:
- DisplayLink in landscape: output runs correctly at 1280x1024 mode, but only in 8-bit color.
- DisplayLink in portrait: again, the DisplayLink output is 'compressed' to roughly two-thirds of the screen size, and with 8-bit color.

Debug Tool log attached.

Cheers,
