When will this be fixed? There has to be a workaround; this is ridiculous.

I tried installing the package in a Win7 VM and moving the drivers back over to the server (along with several variations along that line), but to no avail. The architecture of the product doesn't appear to be straightforward enough for that.

I hadn't been able to find an add-in card that would give me a 3rd display port that works with my onboard VGA/DVI combo. Your USB adapter technology was the only one I'd been able to find that would allow them to coexist. I've now lost my 3rd monitor - again.

This is unacceptable. I now see that I'm not the only person experiencing this issue. If this is Microsoft you're fighting with, they should know they have tens of thousands of developers that use their server products for development. I am a legitimate user of 2008 R2 server; I downloaded and installed it as part of the Microsoft Gold Partner program.

If it's not Microsoft you're fighting with, then what's the use of your patent?

Please advise on my options and/or a timetable for resolution ASAP.
