2nd monitor lags when browsing

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but our IT department had to figure out this on our own last year with little to no help from Targus.

If you get browser lag on the 2nd monitor when using IE, here's your fix:

Make sure it's checked and poof, lag gone. As for other browsers and applications, good luck. Our fix has been to bypass the replicator and plug the VGA straight into the laptop.

Unfortunately I have to deal with these port replicators in my IT environment. The drivers are extremely flaky and often times the 2nd display will no longer work. Targus doesn't provide an extensive driver uninstaller, so literally uninstalling every USB driver is a huge PITA. I gave up and just created a base image with Norton Ghost.
