Hello,

to make it short, i have the same issue as all the people above have.

I tried nVIDIA drivers version:
280.26 (old version)
285.62 (current release)
290.53 (beta)

Also tried em all in combination with the DisplayLink Driver 6.1.35667 and the 5.6 M1.

No change whatever i try.
Ends with me doing a system reinstate after every attemp so the files are clean.

I first install the DisplayLink driver, then i restart the PC, then i plug in the device to the USB and it installs drivers via USB and then bang, dwm.exe dies, aero goes off (windows goes basic mode) and i can't enable areo anymore at all.
Though the third screen does go online, once i reboot the machine it's all dead - down to one screen working only, the nvidia drivers being unable to initialise and so on.

I spent 6 hours on trying to troubleshoot this issue now, no chance with the given software.

Oh yea, i use a GTX 470 and at least the first two drivers (old version and current release one) i tried are WDDM 1.1 compilant, didn't bother to check the dxdiag on the beta one.

Considering everything runs fine until i plug the device to the PC, i would guess one of these windows update distributed drivers is bogus and not the 6.1 download you offer here.
I tried to change the driver back to the one thats in the DisplayLink install directory, but Windows doesn't manage to find a proper driver (not even when i have it search all truh C:\).

Something in the driver changes when it does the install-on-usb-connect and i would guess thats where you guys should be looking.

As of today i have only two weeks left to return the device, so i would appreciate a quick reply if it's even possible to fix the issue, since i would like my money back if that thing isn't gona work for me anyday at all.

Best regards and thanks in advance~~
