My displaylink usb adapter has been working fine for 6 months or so. When I logged in today however, I cannot get the monitor to display anything - just black screen. I have tried multiple cords and multiple monitors. Cords are fine and monitors are fine. The weird thing is that the monitor is recognized in the display settings of the laptop and I can even move my mouse over to the that screen (mouse disappears into the "blackness"). No matter what I try though, nothing is displayed there. I have also gone to the displaylink website and updated drivers. Has anyone experienced this issue or have ideas? I am on Win XP 32 bit laptop. I have regular monitor set up and use the laptop monitor as well. So, when working I have 3 monitors. Please help.

Thanks
Brett
