DisplayLink Forum - View Single Post - Inverted Duplicated Display Under Windows 7

In the first posting above, I mistakenly said "connects via HDMI connection" instead of "connects via wireless USB connection." What is actually happening is an HDMI signal is wirelessly transmitted between two Atlona USB dongles from Fujitsu PC to Atlona base unit, which is then connected to a duplicated (mirrored) external monitor via an HDMI cable.

With the Fujitsu T730 Tablet PC in Tablet PC mode, the Tablet LCD display and the external monitor display have images that are rotated 180 degrees relative to each other. The Windows 7 rotation facility rotates both together, so one of the two displays must always be viewed upside down.

The wireless USB connection is not the problem because the wireless dongles can be replaced by a direct USB cable connection between Fujitsu T730 Tablet PC and Atlona base unit and the same problem is still there.

The problem occurs only while running under Windows 7 because under Windows XP DisplayLink is able to rotate the LCD display independent of the external monitor display.
