Win 7 X64, Nvidia and DisplayLink problem

[mainekarter2004]

Look.. Your drivers do not work. You blame it on Nvidia.. Fact is.. NVIDA all set up works fine.. Install displaylink,, LOSE SURROUND and Nvidia control panel access. It has been MONTHS and MONTHS, and no fix.. How complicated can it be? Or is it easier to lose customers and blame others? Please address this, I have four different SIMULATORS running and ALL OF them have this issue ..

Ok reading this forum I learned one thing. I thought the reason nvidia control panel didn't work was because displaylink takes over. I think it was version 6.1 that worked for me all except my nvidiacontrol panel would crash if I tried to open it. Since I don't do gaming or anything graphic intense I just disabled the startup of nvidia in msconfig and had no problems for a while. Well the one monitor hooked up to my sabrent usb is slow but that was it.

Then when I got a notification from displaylink that an update was available I updated and it killed my PC. I got a BSOD and had to use system repair to roll back to a restore point.

I've been trying with every new version since. Now I have nvidia GT 7900 v 307.83 along with displaylink 7.2m1 installed and it's the same problem as always. If i don't restart after install I see a popup message that this driver is not compatible with my graphics card, driver, or OS. If I restart it's the BSOD. This time I just uninstalled displaylink before restarting so everything is fine but I have no use of the third monitor.

Every time I have had aero enabled. This time is on a clean install of win 7 pro 64bit. The previous times were on win 7 pro 32bit.
