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

I think your issue is with the UWB link. These drivers are not DisplayLink drivers, so I can't help get these working. But looking at the system details, it shows that a DisplayLink device has never been detected on the USB bus:
