Windows Server 2008 R2 support

[Phil Meads]

It's been another half year with no progress.

Recall that I started last June with an ASUS VW223B, downloaded the DisplayLink software for a 64 bit VISTA machine and found that it worked fine with one added monitor on my DELL PowerEdge T605 with Windows Server 2008.

I then added two more monitors through Diamond BVU160 adapters only to find that adding more monitors caused DisplayLink to bomb, requiring uninstallation followed by re-installation.

I tried this on my laptop running Windows 7, and it also bombed with more than one added monitor. However, downloading a more recent version allowed Windows 7 to more or less run with multiple added monitors.

But I have been denied the use of newer corrected versions of DisplayLink on my DELL machine (which I use purely as a workstation).

I have written here, I have sent letters to DisplayLink personnel, including the legal department, but there have been no responses in over a half a year.

I am really irritated at being denied the use of equipment for which I paid a fair amount of money. Please remove your nasty requirement that denies me the use of your recent corrections, such as version 5.3
