Could you please try to unplug the USB Video Device, manually uninstall Displaylink Software from Installed Programs and then install the latest version from our website again ?
It should fix your issue. Thanks Maciej |

Hi
Many Thanks for logs you have posted. I had a quick look and I can see that you have only the core software installed. Normally when you install the latest version from our website you should have Displaylink Core software and Displaylink Graphics software installed. In your case it looks like the driver was downloaded through Windows Update and then something went wrong. We are looking at this issue, but to try help you in the time being, could you please try again to unplug the device ,then uninstall Displaylink Core software, install the latest DL software from the website and plug in the device. Thanks Maciej |

This is what I had to do. 1. unplug usb monitor adapter 2. uninstall the driver software 3. reboot 4. re-install the driver software 5. plug in the usb adapter again 6. repeat steps 1-5 3 more times. It worked on my 4th time through. It may take more or less for you, but maybe it will work eventually. |

Fixed issue
Frustrating but here is what worked.
With adapter plugged in I opened device mgr and uninstalled all the DisplayLink and Targus display drivers. Make sure you delete the drivers from your system. I then uninstalled the DisplayLink software. Unplugged adapter. rebooted Once win8 restarted, I plugged back in the adapter and let Windows search and down load drivers. |

Windows 8 DisplayLink issue
Hello,
Hello, I recently upgraded to Windows 8 Pro, and I have the WUSB to HDMI DisplayLink Adapter from Cables Unlimited a.k.a. Warpia, IOGear GUWAVKIT2, and a few other names that it sells under. The last WUSB driver I tried to use is version 14.2.174.8, with no luck. When we plugin the USB adapter, it tries to plug-n-play, but doesn't complete like it did with Windows 7, as there were about 7 Device Connect sounds, and the screen would flash a couple times as it initialized. With Windows 8, there are only 2 Device Connect sounds, with no screen flash. If the device is left connected, the computer blue screens after a few minutes. Hopefully one of the vendors are working on a new driver for Windows 8. We are using the latest DisplayLink software. Thanks for reading, and for any help. Mike |

Windows 8 DisplayLink issue - reattempt
Hello, I just made another attempt at loading the WUSB drivers and DisplayLink software. I uninstalled both the driver and software, and rebooted. Then I put the DisplayLink USB dongle into the USB port on the computer. Everything installed except for the USB Root Hub for it with a yellow exclamation symbol and an Error 31. When I tried Updating The Driver manually, it would go online to look for one, but would come back to say that it had the best driver on the computer already, despite the yellow triangle symbol. Then I tried reloading the Windows 8 compatible DisplayLink software again. It would start to load, then it seemed like it would quit in the middle of the install. I'm used to clicking Finish at the end of any install which would tell me that it was successful, but that doesn't happen. However, it shows two entries in the Programs and Features list (DisplayLink Core Software and DisplayLink Graphics). The DisplayLink tray icon does not appear at all. Then when I load the WUSB driver for it, that loads fine, but still it does not work. Each time I try to load the driver, it wants to update the firmware on the USB dongles, but I have been skipping that part because I know that they are updated. When the dongle is connected at the PC, the green light flashes quickly for a few seconds, then goes steady, then flashes rapidly again for a few seconds, then shows steady, and does this over and over with no result. I have seem the PC blue screen if I leave the dongle in there too long. Thanks for any help and suggestions. Mike

Similar flashing or black screen issue
Hi, I am running windows 8 on a new Lenovo w530. I have installed, uninstalled, reinstalled drivers etc countless times (including all the ways suggested in this thread) and have had no luck). When wanting to extend my display I get the flashing screen. If I instead duplicate my display my second screen goes black, but has a windows arrow in the centre and my primary screen switches to low resolution, but the flashing ceases. If I switch my secondary screen to off (ie only keep my primary display) then my resolution of my primary screen goes back to normal and the secondary screen goes blank.
Log from the displaylink support tool is attached below (I ran the tool while the primary screen was flashing) Any help suggestions would be much appreciated. |
