After playing around with various versions of the Nvidia drivers and the Display Link software, I managed to get everything working by using older versions of both, as follows:
- Nvidia - Verde 302.80 dated 15 Jun 2012 (available from Nvidia website)
- Display Link Software - version 6.3 M1 dated 1 Aug 2012 (available from
displaylink.com)
I am running on a Dell XPS 17 laptop with Windows 8 Pro, and this configuration of drivers currently works for me. It may/may not for different hardware.
I have also disabled Windows Update for the time being, as each time it runs, it updates the Nvidia driver to the latest one, which doesn't play nicely with the current version of Display Link software.
Good luck!
