Driver8.3 M0 crashes Minecraft.

Thank you Mastrius,

I couldn't see relevant crash dumps in these logs.
Would you please be able to explain or paste a screenshot of the crash you are experiencing so I understand what's happening?
You could also search your hard drive for *.dmp. As this is not a DisplayLink crash, that could be why it is not collected.

Using 7.7 on a recent machine with recent nVidia graphics drivers would indeed create a BSoD. Some hardware manufacturers have not upgraded as this is Windows 7. In any case, DisplayLink driver cannot remove another driver. Even when an incompatible driver is found, we will refuse to install rather than removing third party software. We explain how to remove incompatible software in our FAQ, but we will NEVER do it automatically.
From the hardware ID in your logs, I will look into suggesting a driver upgrade on Windows Update.

Windows XP never gave you any trouble because graphics drivers hadn't been updated for ages. To use a similar DisplayLink driver, you would need to use a similar nVidia driver as, until Windows 10 Anniversary Update and introduction of native support for DisplayLink USB graphics, both drivers have to work hand-in-hand.

Once we have a memory dump file, we can look into what is taking place for that crash. Alternatively, 8.2 M3 driver would be the most deployed driver on Windows 7 today.

Kind regards,
Alban

I already wiped the laptop but I could try and recreate the effect. Where would I find a dump file?

I hate software depreciation.

Hello,

This is really up to you, if you want to go through the bother of finding where this issue lies or if you are satisfied with the explanation that the DisplayLink driver is technically unable to be the source of a BSoD.
As we know it can't be a DisplayLink issue, I will not try to reproduce it locally (I don't play much). This needs to be handled by the company whose code trips the BSoD.

Here is an article on how to manage the Windows dump creation settings with location.

Kind regards,
Alban

I guess it doesn't matter then. But I would like to know what version of the DisplayLink driver would still work with a GeForce Go 7600 adapter.

On the other hand what do I do about Minecraft not working on my Thinkpad T430? Even if I unplug the adapter, as long as the driver is still installed it will not allow the game to run.

Hello,

Without data, me providing advice would be guesswork.

I got this thread confused. We can actually be the source of the BSoD. This is a Windows 7 and I don't know why, I falsely remembered you were on Windows 10 Anniversary Update.

In this version of Windows, DisplayLink drivers must work hand in hand with the primary graphics card driver. Have you looked at more recent graphics driver? These are from 2009.

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 (NVIDIA)
Graphics Driver: 7.15.11.7948 Dated 2009/01/30

Kind regards,
Alban

I tried version 7.15.11.7948 and it gave me a BSOD as well but this time it did not remove the driver. Still I think I will use a restore point because DisplayLink is still probably unstable.

It's the same driver that you were using. I quoted the number you were using. It's a driver from 2009.
