External monitor freezes

I also have this issue. It is a new issue in 5.3, as I have not experienced it before this version. Refreshing the external monitor (either by using the win+p method described above, or by right clicking on my laptop monitor, selecting "screen resolution", then making some change to force a refresh of the external monitor) fixes the problem each time. I experience this issue one to two times per day.

I have the same issue as well, I am a fan of display link so I purchased another dock thinking my chipset was bad and had the same issue, all other devices work just the video freezes.

I'm running a MacBookPro with Win7x64 in BootCamp. My displaylink monitor freezes up at least once a day. I thought i may have had a bad dock, so I purchased a different brand - one that my coworkers are all using - and I still have this problem.

I'm using the 5.4b1 driver with an eVGA UV19+, currently.

i see the reports above on the usb drivers... but like everyone else is saying, none of my other USB devices have any problems. it's only the displaylink drivers with the usb video adapter that has a problem.

is there any update on this issue? is there a known cause?

Same here 5.3 locks up frequently. Monitor is L206WU from LG, Dell Studio XPS laptop, Win 7-Pro x64.

Didn't ever happen under 32bit vista.

The 5.3 Software Release forum is now closed. If any of the problems raised in the forum still exist, please check the v5.5 software and raise them in that forum.
